    Exp 7. Liquid Diffusion Coefficient

    This document outlines a method to determine the diffusion coefficient of NaCl solutions at different concentrations. The method involves monitoring the increase in conductivity of a large volume of water as NaCl diffuses through a honeycomb structure from a glass diffusion cell filled with NaCl solution. Specifically, it involves preparing 1M, 0.1M, and 0.5M NaCl solutions, filling a glass diffusion cell with one of the solutions, immersing it in a stirred tank of water, and recording the conductivity every minute as the NaCl diffuses and increases the bulk water concentration over time.

    <Liquid diffusion coefficient experimental>

    Objective
    To determine the Diffusion Coefficient as the concentrations of NaCl solution.

    Method
    As diffusion of the solute occurs, the concentration within the larger volume increases and is
    monitored with a conductivity meter.
    The mixture is continuously agitated with a magnetic stirrer to ensure uniform concentration within the
    bulk liquid.
    Whilst the apparatus maybe used with any required aqueous system, for introductory studies, 1.0M or
    0.1M solutions of Sodium Chloride are recommended, for which conductivity data is provided.

    1. Make up a 1M solution of NaCl by dissolving 58.44 gm of the salt into 1.0 litres of water. (also,
    0.1M and,0.5M; total 3 solutions)

    2. Fill the acrylic vessel with 1 litre of distilled or deionised water using the measuring jug supplied.
    3. Locate the lid (with the glass diffusion cell fitted) on top of the vessel but locate it eccentrically so
    that it does not locate in the recess and the lid is 5 mm above its normal operating position.

    4. Steady the lid on top of the vessel and check that the top of the honeycomb of capillaries is flush
    with the surface of the water. If necessary adjust the height of the glass diffusion cell by unscrewing
    the gland nut that secures it.

    5. Place the stirrer bar into the bottom of the acrylic vessel and locate the vessel on top of the battery
    operated stirrer.

    6. Connect the conductivity electrode to the socket at the top of the conductivity meter.
    7. Set the range switch to 199.9 μS on the conductivity meter and switch the meter on by pressing
    the POWER button.

    8. Fill the glass diffusion cell with 1M NaCl using the syringe supplied. Ensure that the glass hook
    and plastic honeycomb are filled with the solution with no air bubbles trapped.

    9. This can be achieved by immersing the hook into the solution while forcing liquid through the
    capillaries using the syringe filled with the same solution

    10. Wipe off any excess solution from the outside of the cell and the tops of the capillaries using filter
    paper or similar absorbent material but take care not to suck the salt solution through the capillaries. It
    is important to adjust the level inside the cell so that the free surface is adjacent to the collar on the
    vertical limb of the cell i.e. 5 mm above the tops of the capillaries.

    11. Check the conductivity meter every 1 minute.


    12. This ensures that the salt solution is not disturbed when the cell is immersed 5 mm below the
    surface of the water in the vessel. Do not place the cell into the vessel until instructed.
