Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What is effective diffusivity?

  • The rate of diffusion in solids
  • The rate of diffusion in fluids
  • The rate of diffusion adjusted for interactions in porous media

💡 Hint: Think about how materials interact with the medium.

Question 2

True or False: Higher porosity leads to a slower rate of diffusion.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Restrict your thoughts to space availability.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A sediment column has a porosity of 0.45, and the retardation factor is calculated at 2.5. Calculate the effective diffusivity if the original diffusivity of the substance is known as 1.0 cm²/s.

💡 Hint: Focus on how retardation affects the effective rate.

Question 2

Analyze how changes in bulk density could affect the effective diffusivity in a sediment analysis environment where porosity is altered.

💡 Hint: Consider what density means for the volume available.
