A single potassium chloride (KCl) spherical crystal 0.1 cm in diameter is immersed in a 5 % supersaturated solution containing 25wt% potassium chloride. Assuming the mass transfer coefficient is 0.012 cm/s, Calculate the rate mass flux of KCl to the crystal and consequently calculate the rate of crystal growth (cm/s)
Liquid solution density: 1.20 g cm-3
Crystal density: 2.0 g cm-3
