Question:

A common procedure for increasing the moisture content of air is to bubble it through a column of water. Assume the air bubbles to be spheres of radius r0 = 1 mm and to be in thermal equilibrium with the water at 25°C. How long should the bubbles remain in the water to achieve a vapor concentration at the center that is 99% of the maximum possible (saturated) concentration? The air is dry when it enters the water.
