Question: The solute acetone ( A ) is diffusing through a thin film of water ( B ) 5 m m thick at 2 9 8

The solute acetone (A) is diffusing through a thin film of water (B)5mm thick at 298K. The concentration
of acetone at point 1 at one boundary of the film is 10wt% acetone, and the other boundary at point 2
it is 5wt% acetone. Assuming steady-state and one boundary impermeable to water, calculate the flux
of acetone.
Molecular weight of acetone =58gmol, molecular weight of water =18gmol
 The solute acetone (A) is diffusing through a thin film of
