J = kl(Cl -Cli)
and
J = kg(Cgi-Cg)
assuming that the flux is in the X direction, in other
words from bulk gas phase to bulk liquid phase.
Define:

A similar manipulation starting with the overall flux

APPLICATIONS
Transfer of gas across a gas-liquid interface can
be accomplished by bubbles or by creating
