5 Questions
What factors affect the rate of molecular diffusion?
Temperature, viscosity, and particle size
What is the result of molecular diffusion in terms of material mixing?
A gradual mixing of material resulting in uniform distribution of molecules
What happens to molecular diffusion when concentrations become equal?
Molecules continue to move, but the process is governed by self-diffusion
What term is used to describe the state when molecules are still in motion, but an equilibrium has been established?
Dynamic equilibrium
In the absence of external net forces and with uniform temperature, what governs the process of molecular diffusion?
Self-diffusion
