Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 9.7-mm thick. The concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.664 and 0.3

39 kg of carbon per m3 of iron, which are maintained constant. If the preexponential and activation energy are 6.5 x 10-7 m2/s and 82 kJ/mol, respectively, calculate the temperature (in K) at which the diffusion flux is 3.2 x 10-9 kg/(m2-s).

Answer:

844°C

Explanation:

The problem can be easily solve by using Fick's law and the Diffusivity or diffusion coefficient.

We know that Fick's law is given by,

J = - D \frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}

Where \frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x} is the concentration of gradient

D is the diffusivity coefficient

and J is the flux of atoms.

In the other hand we have, that

D= D_0 e^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}

Where D_0 is the proportionality constant,

R is the gas constant, T the temperature and E_d is the activation energy.

Replacing the value of diffusivity coefficient in Fick's law we have,

J = -D_0 ^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}\frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}

Rearrange the equation to get the value of temperature,

T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}

We have all the values in our equation.

\Delta c = 0.664-0.339 = 0.325 C. cm^{-1}

\Delta x = 9.7*10^{-3}m

E_d = 82000J

D_0 = 6.5*10^{-7}m^2/s

J = 3.2*10^{-9}m^2/s

R= 8.31Jmol^{-1}K

Substituting,

T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}

T=-\frac{-82000}{(8.31)ln(\frac{3.2*10^{-9}(9.7*10^{-3})}{6.5*10^{-7} (0.325)})}

T=1118.07K=844\°C

Cerebrum: is the largest part of the brain and is composed of right and left hemispheres. It performs higher functions like interpreting touch, vision and hearing, as well as speech, reasoning, emotions, learning, and fine control of movement.

Cerebellum: is located under the cerebrum. Its function is to coordinate muscle movements, maintain posture, and balance.

Brainstem: acts as a relay center connecting the cerebrum and cerebellum to the spinal cord. It performs many automatic functions such as breathing, heart rate, body temperature, wake and sleep cycles, digestion, sneezing, coughing, vomiting, and swallowing.
