A chamber containing O2 at 100 K and 10³ atm is placed in the outer space. The oxygen leaks to the outer space through a small hole, 1 µm diameter, in the chamber wall. a) Estimate the number of molecules that escape from the container per unit time. b) What is the mass flux? What is the mass flow rate?
