Question: EXAMPLE PROBLEM : Methane diffuses at steady state through a tube containing helium. At point 1 the partial pressure of methane is p A 1

EXAMPLE PROBLEM :
Methane diffuses at steady state through a tube containing helium. At point 1 the partial pressure of methane is pA155kPa and at point 2,0.03m apart PA2=15KPa. The total pressure is 101.32kPa, d the temperature is 298K. At this pressure and temperature, the value of diffusivity is 6.75**10-5m2sec.
i. calculate the flux of CH4 at steady state for equimolar counter diffusion.
ii. Calculate the partial pressure at a point 0.02m apart from point 1.
