Answer in a brief and concise essay. 1. Why does diffusion in solids important?
Rank the magnitudes of the diffusion coefficients from greatest to least for the following systems:
N in Fe at 700°C
Cr in Fe at 700°C
N in Fe at 900°C
Cr in Fe at 900°C
Now justify this ranking. (Note: Both Fe and Cr have the BCC crystal structure, and the atomic radii for Fe, Cr, and N are 0.124, 0.125, and 0.065 nm, respectively. You may also want to refer to Section 5.4.)
What does(do) determine a diffusion coefficient (diffusivity)? (choose all)a. Concentration gradientb. Diffusing species and host metalc. Geometryd. Temperature
