Answer:

Diffusion rate is 1.96 × 10^{-3} cm^{2}/s

Explanation:

Diffusion is the process in which the molecules of a substance propagates from a region of higher concentration to region of lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.

diffusion rate = \frac{area}{time}

Given that; diameter = 15 mm, time = 15 minutes.

The dye spread in a circular form, so that;

area = \pir^{2}

r = \frac{diameter}{2} = \frac{15}{2} = 7.5 mm = 0.75 cm

area = \frac{22}{7} × (0.75)^{2} = 1.7679 cm^{2}

time = 15 minutes = 15 × 60 = 900 seconds

So that;

diffusion rate = \frac{1.7679}{900}

                      = 0.0019643 cm^{2}/s

Diffusion rate is 1.96 × 10^{-3} cm^{2}/s
