The equation, NA = (DAB . Pt /RTZ) (y1 - y2) is for _______________________?

Correct answer: C. Steady state equimolar counter diffusion

  • A. Steady state diffusion for stagnant case
  • B. Fick's first law of diffusion
  • C. Steady state equimolar counter diffusion
  • D. Liquid M.T.C. by penetration theory

Explanation

For steady equimolar counterdiffusion, the molar flux is proportional to the mole-fraction difference and inversely proportional to the diffusion distance, giving the stated expression with DABPt/RTz. The stagnant-gas form contains an additional logarithmic concentration or mole-fraction term.
