Total Flux Calculation for Particle A and B in a Steady State
Given:
Flux of Particle A = 2.44 mol/sq.m sec
Flux of Particle B = 4.44 mol/sq.m sec
To find the total flux for Particle A and B in a steady state, we need to add the individual flux values together.
1. Calculate the Total Flux for Particle A:
Total Flux for Particle A = Flux of Particle A = 2.44 mol/sq.m sec
2. Calculate the Total Flux for Particle B:
Total Flux for Particle B = Flux of Particle B = 4.44 mol/sq.m sec
3. Calculate the Overall Total Flux:
Overall Total Flux = Total Flux for Particle A + Total Flux for Particle B
= 2.44 mol/sq.m sec + 4.44 mol/sq.m sec
= 6.88 mol/sq.m sec
Therefore, the correct answer is option C) 6.88.
Explanation:
Flux is a measure of the flow of a substance through a surface. It is defined as the amount of substance passing through a unit area per unit time. In this case, we are given the flux values for Particle A and Particle B separately.
To find the total flux in a steady state, we simply need to add the individual flux values together. This is because in a steady state, the flux of each particle remains constant over time.
So, we add the flux of Particle A (2.44 mol/sq.m sec) to the flux of Particle B (4.44 mol/sq.m sec) to get the overall total flux.
The overall total flux represents the combined amount of Particle A and Particle B passing through a unit area per unit time. In this case, the overall total flux is calculated to be 6.88 mol/sq.m sec.
Hence, option C) 6.88 is the correct answer.
