(a) Fick's law states that the particle current density is proportional to the concentration gradient and the magnitude of the diffusive flow. (b) Fick's first law relates to diffusive flow with concentration under the assumption of a steady state. This law postulates that the flow goes from a region of high concentration to regions of low concentration, with a magnitude that is proportional to the concentration gradient (spatial derivative), or in simpler terms the concept that the solute will move from a region of high concentration to one of low concentration crossing a concentration gradient. (c) The following equation, which relates the concentration of reactant in the catalyst layer and the mass reagent concentration, is the equation of the diffusion velocity: Where: Wr = Diffusion Speed Dra = Difusion Coefficient Cr0 = bulk Reactant Concentration Crº = Reagent Concentration in catalyst layer (d) 1. In non-homogeneous media, the diffusion coefficient varies in space. 2. In anisotropic media, the diffusion coefficient depends on the direction.

Question 1 (a) Estimate the volume (in m3) and density (in kg m3) of a C nucleus. State your assumptions and comment on the value obtained Write down a relationship between a particle's energy, mass and momentum using relativistic (b) kinematics. The SuperKEKB b-factory will collide electrons with energy 7 GeV and positrons with energy 4 GeV in order to produce b-hadron pairs. Write down the four vectors of the electron and positron Hence work out the centre-of-mass energy of...
Quantitative: Fick’s first law helps us understand the relationship between a molecule’s concentration gradient (the difference in its concentration at two locations) and its flux. This can be super important for the delivery of drugs to help cure human illnesses. As one example, we’ll think about a transdermal patch that provides medicine to the body. Scopolamine patches are used to treat motion sickness. Scopolamine comes from the nightshade family and is similar to acetylcholine. It antagonizes acetylcholine activity, preventing acetylcholine from...
summatize the following info and break them into differeng key points. write them in yojr own words apartus 6.1 Introduction—The design of a successful hot box appa- ratus is influenced by many factors. Before beginning the design of an apparatus meeting this standard, the designer shall review the discussion on the limitations and accuracy, Section 13, discussions of the energy flows in a hot box, Annex A2, the metering box wall loss flow, Annex A3, and flanking loss, Annex...
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
