Q2. The radial mass diffusion of component A occurs across a long cylinder filled with component B (liquid phase). In other words, A diffuses from the perimeter of the cylinder towards the centre. Respond to the sections below using the following assumptions: diffusion happens in a steady-state mode with a first-order bulk chemical reaction (-ra = kCA) and the concentration of A at the perimeter (r = R) is equal to CA = (a) Determine the governing equation for mass transfer. (10 marks] Find the concentration distribution as a function of radius. (b)
