Answer / karthick
heat transfers due to temp difference(high temp to low
temp) whereas mass transfers due to concentration differs
(ex some portion of room have high conentration of nitrogen
and the other portion have low.here the nitrogen slowly
diffuses from high area to low concentration area to attain
equilibrium)

Answer / umar farooque raza
In mass transfer the particles left their place, but in heat transfer, the particles can not their place because of heat is not a matter.

Answer / hafeez ullah
in heat transfer the driving force must be the temp difference but in mass transfer driving force may be expressed in differ way
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / pavan
heat tranfers both high and low temperature in any component.but mass cannot tranfer to component.heat can descipates itself but mass cannot desipates.Mass can store the energy by locating itself but heat cannot be stored itself,it only transfers.heat changes itself but mass cannot.
