Chapter 6, Problem 6G.3E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

How long does it take a sucrose molecule in water at ${25}^{o}C$ to diffuse along a single dimension $10mm$ has to be calculated form its starting point.

Concept Introduction:

Simple diffusion: The moment of molecules move down the concentration gradient is known as simple diffusion.

Facilitated diffusion: The moment of molecules against the (move up) the concentration gradient and changes the shape of the membrane is known as facilitated diffusion.
