The image above represents relationship between electrical conductivity and diffusivity. To calculate the relationship between electrical conductivity and diffusivity, five essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Electrical conductivity (σ ), Coordination Number (Z), Electron Charge (e), Boltzmann’s Constant (KB) and Temperature (T).
The formula for calculating relationship between electrical conductivity and diffusivity:
σ/D = n(Ze)² / KBT
Where:
σ/D = Relationship between Electrical Conductivity and Diffusivity
σ = Electrical Conductivity
D = Diffusivity
Z = Coordination Number
e = Electron Charge
KBÂ = Boltzmann’s Constant
T = Temperature
Let’s solve an example;
Find the relationship between electrical conductivity and diffusivity when the electrical conductivity is 2, the coordination number is 3, the electron charge is 4, the boltzmann’s constant is 1.3806e-23 and the temperature is 7.
This implies that;
σ = Electrical Conductivity = 2
Z = Coordination Number = 3
e = Electron Charge = 4
KB = Boltzmann’s Constant = 1.3806e-23
T = Temperature = 7
σ/D = n(Ze)² / KBT
That is, σ/D = 2(3(4))² / 1.3806e-23(7)
σ/D = 2(12)² / 9.66e-23
σ/D = 2(144) / 9.66e-23
So, σ/D = 288 / 9.66e-23
σ/D = 2.97
Therefore, the relationship between electrical conductivity and diffusivity is 2.97e+24.
