Question

In order to maximize the rates of diffusion for gasses, indicate whether you would want to increase or decrease the following variables in Fick's Law. (You may reuse the choices and many times as you like.) Rate of Diffusion = k times A times (P_2 - P_1)/D A: P_2 - P_1: D:

Answer 1

In order to increase the rate of diffusion

A- must be increased

P₂ -p_{1 - must be increased}

_{D - should be decreased}
