Question: Hydrochloric acid ( A ) diffuses through a thin film of water ( B ) 4 . 0 mm thick at 2 8 3 K

Hydrochloric acid (A) diffuses through a thin film of water (B)4.0 mm thick at 283 K. The concentration of HCl at point 1 on one boundary of the film is 12 wt% and on the other boundary, at point 2 is 4 wt%. The diffusivity of HCl in water is 2.5 x 10-9 m2/s. Calculate the flux of HCl considering water to be stagnant. Density of the solutions at points 1 and 2 are 1060.7 kg/m3 and 1020.15 kg/m3 respectively.
