The diffusion coefficients for AgN03 at 25", by Stokes' diaphragm technique, are reported for concentrations from 0.1 to 5.0 M in CHaCN (E, 36.01; TO, 0.3413) and from 0.1 to 2.0 M in CsH5CN (E, 25.20; to, 1.211). The results are examined relative to aqueous diffusion data and relative to conductance, viscosity, and spectral studies in these nonaqueous solvents. A model is advanced in terms of a solvated kinetic unit to account for the character of the diffusive flow in these nonaqueous solutions. IntroductionIn recent years, transport properties of electrolytes in nonaqueous media have received considerable attention. While conductance and viscosity data are relatively abundant in the dilute region, diffusion results are apparently nonexistent for simple inorganic electrolytes in anhydrous organic solvents. The present communication discusses the application of the Stokes stirred diaphragm cell diffusion technique for nonaqueous electrolytes. First results for AgN03 in CH3-CN (to 5.0 M ) and in CeH5CN (to 2.0 M ) are reported, and the data are examined relative to related studies for AgN03 as an electrolyte in these two solvents as well as in aqueous solutions.
