Engineering Materials Week 3 5.1 Briefly explain the difference between self-diffusion and interdiffusion. Self-diffusion refers to movement of atoms within a pure material; interdiffusion refers to the movement of one or more kind of atoms in a heterogeneous system. 5.7 A sheet of steel 2.5mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 900C and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffusion condition. The diffusion coefficient of nitrogen in steel at 900 C is 1.2 10^-10 m^2/s‚ and the diffusion

When the substrate (reactant) concentration is high enough enzyme A and enzyme A’ may be saturated and their reactions run at the same maximum velocity. However‚ at subsaturating concentrations of reactants‚ these different enzymes run at different velocities for the same concentration of substrate. Enzyme A’ has a
