GROUP – C (answer any two) (10)

5. Ammonia gas (A) diffuses through nitrogen gas (B) under steady state conditions with 5
nitrogen non-diffusing. The partial pressure of A at location is 1.5 x 104 Pa and that at
location 2 is 5 x 103 Pa. the location 1 and 2 are 15 cm apart. The total pressure is 1.103 x
105 Pa and temperature is 298 K. calculate the flux of diffusion of ammonia. Also
calculate flux of diffusion for equimolar counter diffusion assuming that nitrogen is also
diffusing. Take diffusivity at prevailing conditions are 2.30 x 10 -5 m2/s .
6. Ammonia is diffusing through a stagnant mixture consisting of one third Nitrogen and two- 5
thirds Hydrogen by volume. The total pressure is 1 atm and the temperature is 200oc.
calculate the rate of diffusion of ammonia through a film of gas 0.5mm thick, when ammonia
concentration changes across the film is 12% and 7% by volume. The diffusivities at 200oc
and 1 atm pressure are DAB = 5.391 X 10-5 m 2 /s and DBC = 1.737 X 10-4 m 2 /s
7. Explain molecular diffusion in gases in detail. Also discuss steady state diffusion of A 5
through non diffusing B.
