5 Questions
What factors affect the rate of molecular diffusion?
Temperature, viscosity, and particle size
What does molecular diffusion explain?
The movement of molecules from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration
What occurs once concentrations are equal in molecular diffusion?
Molecules continue to move, but the process is governed by self-diffusion
What is the result of diffusion in terms of material mixing?
Gradual mixing of material resulting in uniform distribution of molecules
How is molecular diffusion typically described mathematically?
Using Fick's laws of diffusion
