A polarographic method was used to measure the mass transfer coefficients between a mercury layer and an aqueous layer agitated by gas bubbles. The effects of gas rate, vessel size, and sparge-tube diameter were studied. The Schmidt number of the aqueous phase was varied by the use of sucrose solutions. The data are well represented by N/sub Sh/.1.33N/sub Re//sup 0.70/N/sub SC//sup 1/3/. 4 refs.
