Methylene Chloride is a common ingredient of paint removers. Besides being an irritant, it also may be absorbed through the skin. When using this paint remover, protective gloves should be worn. If butyl rubber gloves (0.04 cm thick) are used, what is the diffusive flux of methylene chloride through the glove? The diffusion coefficient of methylene chloride in butyl rubber is 1.1x10-6 cm²/s. The surface concentrations on the outside and inside (C₁ and C2, respectively) are 0.44 g/cm³ and 0.02 g/cm³. Give the answer in units of g/cm² s.
