Estimate the time needed for a glycine molecule to diffuse a distance of 27 μmμm in water at 20 ∘C∘C if its concentration varies over that distance from 1.16 mol/m3mol/m3 to 0.40 mol/m3?
Nuclear magnetic resonance can be used to determine the mobility of molecules in liquids. A set of measurements on methane in carbon tetrachloride showed that its diffusion coefficient is 2.05 × 10−9 m2 s−1 at 0 °C and 2.89 × 10−9 m2 s−1 at 25 °C. Deduce what information you can about the mobility of methane in carbon tetrachloride.
At what pressure does the mean free path of krypton (Kr)atoms (d = 3.16 × 10-10 m) become comparable with thediameter of the 1-L spherical vessel that contains them at300 K? Calculate the diffusion constant at this pressure.
