Molecular diffusivity of a liquid__________________?

Correct answer: A. Increases with temperature

  • A. Increases with temperature
  • B. Decreases 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.
