Molecular diffusivity of a liquid__________________?
Correct answer: B. Increases with temperature
- A. Decreases with temperature
- B. Increases with temperature
- C. May increase or decrease with temperature
- D. Is independent of temperature
Explanation
Liquid molecular diffusivity generally increases with temperature because molecular motion and molecular mobility increase. This differs from viscosity, which usually decreases as liquid temperature rises.
