Question: Solute A is diffusing at unsteady state into a semi - infinite medium of pure B and undergoes a first - order reaction with B

Solute A is diffusing at unsteady state into a semi-infinite medium of pure B and undergoes a first-order reaction with B. Solute A is dilute. Calculate the concentration cA at points z =0,4, and 10 mm from the surface for t =1\times 105 s. Physical property data are DAB =1\times 109 m2/s, k =1\times 104 s1, cA0=1.0 kg mol A/m3. Also calculate the kg mol A absorbed/m2.
