Mass Diffusivity - Example Values

Example Values

Gases at 1 atm., solutes in liquid at infinite dilution. Legend: (s) – solid; (l) – liquid; (g) – gas; (dis) – dissolved.

Famous quotes containing the word values:

    “When the shingles hissed
    in the rain incendiary,
    other values were revealed to us,”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “Normality highly values its normal man. It educates children to lose themselves and to become absurd, and thus to be normal. Normal men have killed perhaps 100,000,000 of their fellow normal men in the last fifty years.”
    —R.D. (Ronald David)
