True or False? Justify your answer. A. In a rectangular drug delivery device that consists of a drug reservoir and a diffusion barrier made of a polymer gel, the steady state diffusion (mass transfer) rate through a barrier of thickness 1 cm was found to be 20 mg/day. If the barrier thickness were to be doubled keeping the reservoir drug concentration the same, the mass transfer rate would be 10 mg/day. B. In a spherical drug delivery device consisting of a core reservoir surrounded by a polymer gel barrier, the steady state diffusion (mass transfer) rate through a barrier of thickness 1 cm was found to be 20 mg/day. If the barrier thickness were to be doubled keeping the reservoir drug concentration the same, the mass transfer rate would be 10 mg/day.

A tanker ship is transporting 0.798 kg/m3 of a rare gas in its tank. After the fill-up, the 1.94 m long pipe used to fill the tank was left open for 10.4 hours. In that time, 11.7 x10-4 kg of the gas diffuses out of the tank, almost nothing compared to the original quantity of gas in the tank. If the concentration of that gas in our atmosphere is typically zero, and the diffusion constant of that gas is 2.13 x10-5 m2/s, what is the cross-sectional area of the pipe?
Which of the following is independent of flow velocity? a. Transverse diffusion b. Longitudinal diffusion c. Eddy diffusion d. Mass transfer
**JUST PART C PLEASE** The pressure in a pipeline that transports helium gas at a rate of 5 lbm/s is maintained at 14.7 psia by venting helium to the atmosphere through a 0.25-inch internal diameter vertical tube that extends10 ft into the air. Helium and atmospheric air are at 60F. The diffusion coefficient for a mixture of helium with air is 2.79 ft2/h at 77oF. Assume the mole fraction of helium in the atmosphere is negligible, and the mole fraction of air in the helium pipeline is negligible. Determine the following:(a) The mass flow rate of helium flowing to the atmosphere through the tube.(b) The mass flow rate of air that infiltrates into the pipeline.(c) The net mass flow rate in the vertical tube.

Develop a mathematical expression for the effective mass transfer rate achieved by an implanted drug delivery device that consists of a spherical core of radius R0 containing the drug, surrounded by a gel barrier of uniform thickness (R1-R0), i.e., the radius of the device (reservoir + barrier) is R1. When implanted, a scar tissue layer of thickness (R2-R1) forms around the device. State and justify any assumptions you might make. For a spherical shell, the flux and mass transfer rate are given by the following expressions (see notes “Steady State Molecular Diffusion: Geometry Effects”
Suppose you open a bottle of perfume at one end of a room. Very roughly, how much time would pass before a person at the other end of the room could smell the perfume, if diffusion were the only transport mechanism? Do you think diffusion is the dominant transport mechanism in this situation?
