Question 1

What role does the diffusion coefficient (D) play in mass transfer?

  • It determines the temperature of the system.
  • It quantifies the rate of diffusion in relation to concentration gradients.
  • It measures the weight of a substance.

💡 Hint: What does D correlate with in terms of concentration differences?

Question 2

True or False: Equilibrium in mass transfer means that substances are actively moving.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about whether movement continues when things are balanced.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the diffusion coefficient for a chemical that moves through water at a rate of 0.5 kg/m²s with a concentration difference of 0.1 kg/m³ across a distance of 0.5 m.

💡 Hint: Remember to set up the equation using Fick's law of diffusion.

Question 2

Discuss the environmental implications of a high diffusion coefficient in water pollutants.

💡 Hint: Think about how rapidly a spill could affect aquatic life and ecosystems.
