A thin slab of solid salt (NaCl), with dimension of 0.15 m × 0.15m, is being dragged through seawater (v = 1.022 × 10–6 m2/s) at an average relative velocity of 0.6 m/s. The seawater at 18°C has a salt concentration of 31 kg/m3, while the salt slab has a concentration of 35000 kg/m3. If the diffusion coefficient of salt in seawater is 1.2 × 10–9 m2/s, determine the mass convection rate of salt being dissolved in the seawater. Answer: 0.0235 kg/s
