Abstract

The activation energy of the tracer diffusion of Mn2+ ions in alkali chlorid solutions (0.1M) has been determined in agar gel medium (1–2.5%) over the temperature range of 25–45 °C. The decrease in the value of the Arrhenius parameters, E and D0, with gel percentage is explained on the basis of the transition state theory. Further, the activation energy as a function of electrolyte concentration is also investigated using 1% agar gel in the temperature range of 25–45 °C. In both the cases, the activation energies are determined by the least square fitting of the diffusion coefficient data obtained at various temperatures through the Arrhenius plots.
