格雷姆扩散定律Graham's law of effusion

\[\frac{r_1}{r_2} = \sqrt{\frac{M_2}{M_1}}\]

含义Meaning

同温同压下,气体的扩散(隙流)速率与其摩尔质量的平方根成反比。

At equal temperature and pressure, effusion rate is inversely proportional to the square root of molar mass.

符号说明Symbols

符号Symbol含义 Meaning单位 Unit
\(r\)扩散 / 隙流速率rate of effusion / diffusionmol·s⁻¹
\(M\)摩尔质量molar massg·mol⁻¹

推导Derivation

  1. 隙流速率正比于分子平均速率 \(\bar v\)。

    Effusion rate is proportional to the mean molecular speed \(\bar v\).

  2. 由分子运动论 \(\bar v = \sqrt{8RT/(\pi M)} \propto 1/\sqrt{M}\)(T 相同)。

    Kinetic theory: \(\bar v = \sqrt{8RT/(\pi M)} \propto 1/\sqrt{M}\) at fixed T.

  3. 取两种气体之比即得。

    Take the ratio for two gases.

适用条件与局限Assumptions & limitations

  • 严格适用于隙流(小孔直径远小于平均自由程);宏观扩散只是近似。

    Strictly for effusion through a hole much smaller than the mean free path; bulk diffusion only approximately.

  • 两气体须在同温下比较。

    Compare at the same temperature.

例题Worked example

²³⁵UF₆ 与 ²³⁸UF₆ 的速率比仅 √(352/349) = 1.0043,所以气体扩散法浓缩铀需要上千级。

²³⁵UF₆ vs ²³⁸UF₆: rate ratio √(352/349) = 1.0043, so diffusion enrichment needs over a thousand stages.
