If the flow of liquid is turbulent, the transfer of solutes will take place due to molecular diffusion.

If the flow of liquid is turbulent, the transfer of solutes will take place due to molecular diffusion. Correct Answer False

The turbulent flow of liquid and the mass transfer accompanied by it will be due to the combination of molecular diffusion as well as eddy diffusion and not just by the molecular diffusion. The laminar flow of liquid is the result of only molecular diffusion.

In a gas mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, steady state equimolar counter diffusion is occurring at a total pressure of 100 kPa and temperature of 20°C. If the partial pressures of oxygen at two planes 0.01 m apart, and perpendicular to the direction of diffusion are 15 kPa and 5 kPa, respectively and the mass diffusion flux of oxygen in the mixture is 1.6 * 10–5 kmol/m2.sec, calculate the molecular diffusivity for the system. For equimolar counter current diffusion:
