Problem #4: We will later develop a formula based on the kinetic theory of gases to predict the self-diffusivity of a single-species ideal gas as:
1(RT)^(3/2) / 6MTtd^2PNA
Daas
A simplified version of this formula, using non-SI units, is often given as:
1 (T)^(3/2) Dgas = 1.61 x 10^(-3) M d^2p
where T is in Kelvin, P is in atm, d is in Ã…, and M is in grams per mole. Derive how the pre-factor of 1.61 x 10^(-3) is obtained. Clearly show all your work.
