A method is described for determining the diffusion coefficient of solutes by determining the rate of passage of the solute through a thin porous membrane between two solutions of different concentration. The method has been used to determine the diffusion coefficient of carbon monoxide hemoglobin. This was found to be 0.0420 ± 0.0005 cm.2 per day at 5°C. The molecular weight of carbon monoxide hemoglobin calculated by means of Einstein's equation from this quantity is 68,600 ± 1,000.

ABSTRACTThe effect of atomic and molecular motions on the NMR free-induction decay (FID) and lineshape is investigated theoretically in the intermediate temperature range in which the NMR line is only partially narrowed. It is shown that the FID may be decomposed into the weighted sum of a rigid-lattice (background) contribution and an exponentially decaying part containing all the information on the diffusive or reorientational motions in the crystal in terms of the spin-spin relaxation time T2.

Using microscope slides for the diffusion grating, a glass diffusion cell was constructed which permitted the determination of absolute diffusion constants of γ-ray emitting elements in aqueous solutions.The cell was tested at 25 °C with 110Ag as tracer and gave a bulk-diffusion coefficient of 1.64 × 10 −5 cm2/s and a self-diffusion coefficient of 1.48 × 10−5 cm2/s using 0.01 M AgNO3.The hydrogen ion concentration had no detectable effect on the diffusion coefficient of AgNO3 in the pH range −0.48 to 7.5. The presence of Na or Fe(III) ions, or sucrose molecules at moderate concentrations (> 0.1 M) resulted in a marked decrease in the diffusion coefficient.
