Fick's First Law (2): Flux and Concentration Gradient With Example #1

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the number of sucrose molecules passing through a given area using gradients from transport phenomena. It covers the setup of the problem, the use of the flux equation, and the importance of unit conversion. The tutorial demonstrates the calculation of the number of moles and molecules using the diffusion coefficient and Avogadro's number, emphasizing the need to pay attention to units.
