Consider the steady, uni-directional diffusion of a binary mixture of A and B across
a vertical slab of dimensions 0.2 m × 0.1 m × 0.02 m as shown in the figure.
The total molar concentration of A and B is constant at 100 mol m−3.
The mole fraction of A on the left and right faces of the slab are maintained at 0.8 and 0.2, respectively.
If the binary diffusion coefficient DAB = 1 × 10−5 m2 s−1,
the molar flow rate of A in mol s−1, along the horizontal x direction is


Correct : b
