This paper deals with the determination of tracer diffusion coefficients of Cr 3+ ions in agar gel media containing MnSO 4 , CuSO 4 , CoSO 4 , NiSO 4 , and ZnSO 4 . The diffusion coefficients in various electrolytes were measured over the electrolyte concentration range (5 · 10 -7 to 10 -2 ) M using the zone diffusion technique at 25°C. The resulting values are compared with theoretical values obtained using Onsager's theory, and the observed deviations are explained qualitatively on the basis of various interactions occurring in the ion-gel-water system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
