Question: Acetone ( A ) is evaporating from a stagnant layer of benzene ( B ) at 2 5 deg C . The concentration of

Acetone (A) is evaporating from a stagnant layer of benzene (B) at 25\deg C. The
concentration of acetone at the interface (z =0) is ,s =0.1 kg/m^3, and the bulk
concentration of acetone in the benzene (far from the interface) is ,\infty =0.001 kg/m^3.
The diffusion coefficient of acetone in benzene at 25\deg C is .).=1.2 x 10^-9 m^2/s.
According to Fick's Law of Diffusion, express the mass flux (.) of acetone in terms of
concentration (.) and diffusion coefficient (.
