What is an interface in mass transfer?
💡 Hint: Consider what happens when liquid and gas interact.
True or False: Steady state means that the concentration at the interface remains constant over time.
💡 Hint: Think about balance in flows.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Discuss how you would experimentally determine the mass transfer coefficient for a gas-liquid system. What factors would you consider?
💡 Hint: Outline your experimental design.
You have a lake with wind causing two different mixing states. Explain how you would theoretically compare the mass transfer coefficients for the two phases and what assumptions might you need to make.
💡 Hint: Consider how environmental conditions affect mass transfer.
