    1. The document discusses 1D mass transfer with a first order homogeneous chemical reaction (A decomposing to C) within a liquid film. 2. The analysis focuses on the liquid phase, using a differential flux equation and general flux equation to derive a second order linear differential equation describing the concentration profile of species A over the film thickness. 3. The differential equation is solved subject to boundary conditions of the concentration of A at the film surface and where A is completely consumed. This yields an expression for the concentration of A throughout the film involving the Hatta number, a dimensionless group involving the reaction rate and diffusivity. 4. For a very fast reaction rate, the flux of A at

    1D Mass Transfer with 1st Order
    Homogeneous Chemical Reaction
     Consider diffusion and reaction of solute “A”
    within liquid film containing solvent “B”
     In the liquid, a homogeneous reaction occurs
    where “A” decomposes to produce “C”
    AC Because “A” is
    consumed

    The 1st order rate equation: RA = – k1 cA

     For dilute solution of “A”  EMCD is approached (xA ~ 0)
