Saturated water vapor at 25°C (Psat = 3.17 kPa) flows in a pipe that passes through air at 25°C with a relative humidity of 40 percent. The vapor is vented to the atmosphere through a 9-mm internal-diameter tube that extends 10 m into the air. The diffusion coefficient of vapor through air is 2.5 × 10 –5 m2/s. The amount of water vapor lost to the atmosphere through this individual tube by diffusion is

(a) 1.7 × 10–6kg

(b)2.3 × 10–6 kg

(c)3.8 × 10–6 kg

(d) 5.0 × 106 kg

(e) 7.1 × 10–6 kg
