Chapter 15, Problem 15.6P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The equation for diffusion and reaction in the tail of the given organism is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The migration of any substance from the region of high concentration to the region of low concentration is known as diffusion. The diffusion process takes place in the liquid and gaseous state.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The equation for the internal effectiveness factor in the tail of an organism is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The effectiveness factor is the division of the average rate of the reaction with rate of reaction at the bulk-stream point that is at boundary conditions or without diffusion. It is denoted by η.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The length of the tail of the given organism is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The migration of any substance from the region of high concentration to the region of low concentration is known as diffusion. The diffusion process takes place in the liquid and gaseous state.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The comparison of the answer with average tail length of 41μm is to be stated. The possible source of error is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The migration of any substance from the region of high concentration to the region of low concentration is known as diffusion. The diffusion process takes place in the liquid and gaseous state.
