Nitrogen gas is used to harden iron by diffusing the nitrogen into BCC iron at 700°C. If the surface concentration of nitrogen is maintained at 0.1 weight percent, what is the expected concentration of nitrogen 1 mm from the surface after 10 hours? You can assume that at small values of z, erf(z) is approximately equal to z.

What will be an ideal response?
