Q 1 ) i - Estimate the diffusivity of carbon oxide ( C O 2 ) in air at 3 3 0 K and 1

Q1)
i- Estimate the diffusivity of carbon oxide (CO2) in air at 330K and 1.2 bar applying the following formula and the data given in Table Q1.
DAB=[3.03-(0.98MAB0.5)](10-3)T1.5PMAB0.5AB2D
where;
DAB= diffusion coefficient, cm2sec
MA,MB= molecular weights of A and B, respectively
T= temperature, K
P= Pressure, bar
AB= collision diameter, angstrom
D= diffusion collision integral, dimensionless
Given the following:
MAB=2(1MA+1MB)-1,AB=0.5(A+B),
ABK=(AKBK)0.5
ii- Given the data in (a), estimate the diffusivity at 440K and 1.2 bar
iii- Given the data in (a), estimate the diffusivity at 330K and 2.5 bar
iv- Assume the air is a mixture composed of 77.5%N2,20.0%O2,1.0%H2O and 1.5%CO2(molar basis). Estimate the diffusivity of CO2 in the air, provided that:
