Chemical Engineering > GATE 2017 > Mass Transfer Resistance
Consider steady state mass transfer of a solute A from a gas phase to a liquid phase. The gas phase bulk and interface mole fractions are yA,G and yA,i, respectively. The liquid phase bulk and interface mole fractions are xA,L and xA,i, respectively. The ratio (xA,i - xA,L) / (yA,G - yA,i) is very close to zero. This implies that mass transfer resistance is
A
(A) negligible in the gas phase only
B
(B) negligible in the liquid phase only
C
(C) negligible in both the phases
D
(D) considerable in both the phases

Correct : b
