PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL DATA

In this table are a representative selection of diffusion coefficients. The subsection “Prediction and Correlation of Physical Properties” should be consulted for estimation techniques. As general references, the works by Hirschfelder, Curtiss, and Bird, Molecular Theory of Gases and Liquids, Wiley, New York, 1964; Chapman and Cowling, The Mathematical Theory of Non-Uniform Gases, Cambridge, New York, 1970; Reid and Sherwood, The Properties of Gases and Liquids, TABLE 2-325

McGraw-Hill, New York, 1964; and Bretsznajder, Prediction of Transport and Other Physical Properties of Fluids, Pergamon, New York, 1971, may be found useful. The most exhaustive recent compilation for gases is by Mason and Marrero, J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data, 1 (1972). Unfortunately, the Mason and Marrero work cites only equations and equation constants and not direct tabulations. For these, the LandoltBörnstein series is suggested.

Diffusivities in Liquids (25 °C)

Dilute solutions and 1 atm unless otherwise noted; use DLμ/T = constant to estimate effect of temperature; * indicates that reference gives effect of concentration.
