Chapter 5.7, Problem 37SEP
To determine

In Table 5.1, propose a diffusion mechanism for metals and non-metals listed, and justify your answer. Why are the activation energies for self-diffusion of non-metals Si and C significantly higher than those of metals in this table.

Students have asked these similar questions
why diffusion coefficients of carbon in BCC and FCC in iron at temperature 912 c are difference? explain ?
The activation energy for the diffusion of atomic species A in metal B is 114 kJ/mol. Calculate the diffusion coefficient at 891°C, given that the value of D at 1170°C is 76.7 × 10^-12 m2/s.
Compare the diffusion coefficients of carbon in BCC and FCC iron at the allotropic transformation temperature of 912°C and explain the reason for the difference in their values.
