2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the definition of mass balance?
Think about how we track materials in a process.
What does effective diffusivity measure?
It's connected to how materials move in sediments.
What role does effective diffusivity play in contaminant transport?
Consider how different media affect molecular transport.
True or False: The local equilibrium assumption states that adsorption and diffusion can occur at significantly different rates.
Think about how equilibrium typically works in systems.
If a contamination event occurs in a sediment environment with high porosity, explain the expected impacts on diffusion rates and mass transport over time.
Think about how initial conditions impact long-term scenarios.
Design an experiment to test the validity of the local equilibrium assumption in a given porous medium. Outline your approach.
Consider the factors influencing flow and concentration over time.
