Determination of diffusivity
The diffusivityy of the ggas ppair O2-CC14 is beingg determined
by observing the steady-state evaporation of carbon
tetrachloride into a tube containing oxygen. The distance
between the CC14 liquid level and the top of the tube is z2 –
z1 = 17.1 cm. The total pressure on the system is 755 mm Hg,
and the temperature is 0 °C. The vapor pressure of CC14 at
that temperature is 33.0 mm Hg. The cross-sectional area of
the diffusion tube is 0.82 cm2. It is found that 0.0208 cm3 of
CCI4 evaporate in a 10-hour period after steady state has been
attained. What is the diffusivity of the gas pair O2-CC14 ?

Determination of diffusivity

• Evaporation rate of CCl4


m CCl4 = (0, 0208 cm3 )(1,59 g / cm3 ) /(154 g / mol ) /(10 h)
= 2,15 ⋅10−5 mol / h

• Molar flux of CCl4


N CCl4 = (2,15 ⋅10−5 mol / jam) /(0,82 cm 2 )
= 2, 62 ⋅10−5 mol /(cm 2 h)
