use the ff table for answering

Transcribed Image Text:

Tank 1 containing pure carbon monoxide (A) at 2 atm is connected to another tank, Tank 2, containing pure hydrogen gas (B) also at 72 kPa. Both tanks are at 15 o C. Initially, the valve located at the 0.72132- in diameter, 200-mm long tube connecting the two tanks is closed to prevent mixing. Both tanks have a volume of 50 cubic feet. However, due to mistakes by the ones monitoring the tanks, the valve was inadvertently opened and mixing of the gases commences. At the time they noticed that the valve was open, the mass fraction of CO in one tank is 0.49987 and the valve was immediately closed. Assume ideal gas behavior. (Atomic weights: C-12.00, H-1.00, 0-16.00) Dco-H₂ Determine using the appropriate correlation. What is the mole fraction of H2 in Tank 1 after the valve was closed, assuming the tube volume is negligible? What is the total molar rate of diffusion of H2 through the tube right before the valve was closed in mol/s? Towards which tank is H2 diffusing?
