Pure hydrogen is contained in a long cylindrical container at a pressure of 10 ATM and a temperature of 325 K. The inner diameter of the container is 50 mm and the wall thickness is 4 mm. Air flowing outside of the container does not contain any hydrogen. The mass diffusivity and the solubility of hydrogen in the container material are 1.8x10-11 m2/s and 16 kmol/(m3 ATM), respectively.

(a) What is the rate of hydrogen transfer through the walls of the container per unit length?

(a) How long does it take for half of the hydrogen to leak out of the container?
