Carbon dioxide (CO, MW = 44.01 g/mol) is diffusing from a 0.50 mm in radius bubble surrounded by water (H20; MW = 18.01 g/mol) at 320 K. The concentration of CO2 in water at the bubble surface is 0.003 kgmol/ml. The bulk concentration of CO2 in the water (e.g. a long way from the bubble) is negligible. The diffusivity of CO2 in water is 2.00 x 10m/s at 298 K. Determine steady state flux of nitrogen at the surface of the bubble. Note: Llwater(320 K) = 1.0 cP; Mwoter (320 K) = 0.60 CP
