_______________ diffusion is used for separating the isotopes of methane ?
Correct answer: A. Thermal
- A. Thermal
- B. Pressure
- C. Concentration
- D. Force
Explanation
Thermal diffusion separates isotopes because the components respond differently to a temperature gradient due to their mass difference. Methane isotopes can therefore be separated using thermal-diffusion equipment.
