Question 1

What does effective diffusivity refer to?

  • Speed of diffusion in vacuum
  • Diffusion through porous materials
  • Rate of flow in liquids

💡 Hint: Think about how solids change the path of diffusion.

Question 2

True or False: The local equilibrium assumption implies that diffusion and adsorption rates are different.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Are diffusion and adsorption happening at the same speed?

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a scenario of a pollutant spreading in a sandy soil with high porosity, calculate the expected time for diffusion considering effective diffusivity. Assume DA3 = 0.045 m²/s.

💡 Hint: Consider time = distance² / (2 * DA3) for estimating.

Question 2

In a site with significant heavy metal adsorption onto soil particles, evaluate how this might change diffusion rates compared to a clean sandy substrate.

💡 Hint: Examine how adsorption directly affects the movement of contaminants.
