A sheet of BCC iron 2-mm thick was exposed to a carburizing gas atmosphere on one side

Question:

A sheet of BCC iron 2-mm thick was exposed to a carburizing gas atmosphere on one side and a decarburizing atmosphere on the other side at 675°C.After reaching steady state, the iron was quickly cooled to room temperature. The carbon concentrations at the two surfaces of the sheet were determined to be 0.015 and 0.0068 wt%, respectively. Compute the diffusion coefficient if the diffusion flux is 7.36 × 10-9 kg/m2.s. Use Equation 4.9 to convert the concentrations from weight percent to kilograms of carbon per cubic meter of iron?
