Urea with formula structure of (NH2)2CO is diffusing very slowly in water solution at 31 oC to 

develop the hydrolysis of urea into carbon dioxide and ammonia. The urea solution was produced 

through the active site with the protein binding (MW = 726 300) containing 21 g protein/200 mL 

solution and form a tetrahedral cluster that fills the cavity site through hydrogen bonds.Compare the diffusivity coefficient for urea solution at 31 oC using Stokes-Einstein and 

Wilke-Chang methods.

A steam pipe shown below has two sections, an expanded and contracted ends. The pressures, density, diameters and velocities of the pipe are given; fluid density ρ =960kg/m3 ,the sections diameters D1 = 100mm, D2=80mm, the gauge pressure at section one is P1 =200KN/m2 and the velocity at point one U1= 5m/s. What is the pressure at point 2?
Consider the steady flow in University of Abuja water pipe joint shown in the diagram. The areas are: A1=0.3 m2, A2= 0.3 m2, and A3=0.25 m2. In addition, fluid is lost out of a hole at estimated rate of 0.2 m3/s. The average speeds at sections 1 and 3 are V1=10 m/s and V3= 24 m/s respectively. Find the velocity at section 2, assumption made should be duly stated also as an engineer in the making; interpret your final result using engineering intuition.
