Textbook Question
Chapter 15, Problem 96TDI
You and your friend are eating lunch in the cafeteria. Suddenly,
you both smell very strong perfume. “Wow”, your friend
says, “I wish they would turn the fan off. It’s blowing that perfume
right at us.” You say, “Even if they turn the fan
off, there would still be diffusion. You would still smell the
perfume.” Which of you is correct?

Students have asked these similar questions
1) Suppose that the initial number of bacteria in a culture is 200, and that there are 700 bacteria present after 2 days. How long would it take for the number of bacteria to reach 4000?
2) A bowl of soup originally at 140 F is sitting in a 70 F room. After 10 minutes, the soup has cooled to 120 F. How long will it take for the soup to cool to 90 F?
Air, CO2, some plastics, water, and hand sanitizer are all transparent materials.
Yet you can tell when a clear water bottle is full of clear water on sight. You can tell how full the hand sanitizer container is at a glance. Yet you cannot tell where CO2 is on sight.
How would you explain this?
Our molecular model of matter describes a fluid as consisting of lots of little particles (atoms or molecules) moving around very fast. Collisions between the molecules makes the particles of the fluid
change directions and speeds often and randomly. We've talked about two different phenomena that depend on these random molecular interactions: viscosity and diffusion. Viscosity is the way
collisions with other parts of the fluid slow down faster-moving bits of fluid, and diffusion is the way collisions spread out concentrations of molecules. Let's consider the viscosity and diffusion
coefficients might depend on the properties of the fluid by dimensional analysis

- Suppose you have a culture of bacteria, where the density of each bacterium is 2.0 g/cm³. a. If each bacterium is 5µm × 5µm × 20µm in size, find the number of bacteria if their total mass is 30 grams. Recall that 1µm = 10−6 meters. b. Suppose that you learn that the sizes of bacteria range from 4µm × 5µm × 15µmto5µm × 6µm × 25µm. What is the range of the possible number of bacteria making up the total mass of 30 grams?arrow_forwardInsects do not have lungs as we do, nor do they breathe through their mouths. Instead, they have a system of tiny tubes, called tracheae, through which oxygen diffuses into their bodies. The tracheae begin at the surface of the insect's body and penetrate into the interior. Suppose that a tracheae is 1.83 mm long with a cross-sectional area of 1.47 x 10-9m2. The concentration of oxygen in the air outside the insect is 0.651 kg/m3, and the diffusion constant is 1.79 x 10-5 m2/s. If the mass per second of oxygen is diffusing through a trachea is 1.77 x 10-12 kg/s, then find the oxygen concentration at the interior end of the tube.arrow_forwardYou are evaluating two biodegradable polymers, Polymer A and Polymer B, for material to release hormonal birth control.
