$4\mathrm{.}1$B$.$ Chemical Vaporization from Water Is Vapor$-$Pressure Independent

Compute the fraction and $F_p)$ of benzene and $o-$xylene desorbed at

$25C$ from a basin containing $50E6$ gal with a flow of $10E6ga\frac{l}{?}$ day. Use the

average coefficients given in Table $4\mathrm{.}1-1.$ Report the fraction desorbed as

percentages. Note the difference in chemical vapor pressures.

Compute the desorption rate of each chemical for each basin type in g$/$day

The inlet concentrations are $100\frac{g}{L}$ each. Are the rates comparable?

In the cases of benzene and $o-$xylene, which phase resistance controls the

rate of mass transfer?
