Question:

A diffusion couple similar to that shown in Figure 5.1a is prepared using two hypothetical metals R and S. After a 2.5-h heat treatment at 750(C the concentration of R is 4 at% at the 4-mm position within S. Another heat treatment is conducted on an identical diffusion couple at 900(C and the time required to produce this same diffusion result (viz., 4 at% R at the 4-mm position within S) is 0.4 h. If it is known that the diffusion coefficient at 750(C is 2.6 ( 10-17 m2/s determine the activation energy for the diffusion of R in S?
