For a steel alloy it has been determined that a carburizing heat treatment of 11.9 h duration will raise the carbon concentration to 0.440 wt% at a point 1.00 mm from the surface. Estimate the time necessary to achieve the same concentration at a 6.40 mm position for an identical steel and at the same carburizing temperature.
The enthalpy of vaporization of trichloromethane (chloroform, CHCl3) is 29.4 kJ mol−1 at its normal boiling point of 334.88 K. Calculate (i) the entropy of vaporization of trichloromethane at this temperature and (ii) the entropy change of the surroundings.
