12. Penetration theory assumes that turbulent eddies travel from the bulk of the phase to the interface where they remain constant for a constant exposure time (te). The model correlating KL, mass transfer coefficient and DAB, diffusivity can be expressed as

A. KL= 2(DAB/πte)0.25
B. KL= 2(DAB/πte)0.5
C. KL= 2(DAB/πte)0.75
D. KL= 2(DAB/πte)

Correct Answer: B. KL= 2(DAB/πte)0.5
