1 What is the relation between the force of friction and speed?
… is inversely proportional to speed. (B) … is independent of speed. (C) … is proportional to speed.

2 What is the relation between the force of friction and speed?
… in inversely proportional to speed. (B) … is independent of speed. (C) … is proportional to speed.

3 What do you think is the typical size that needs to be taken into account in applying the Stokes law to ion mobility? Roughly the van-der-Waals size of the ion. Roughly the size of the “ion atmosphere” according to Debye-Hückel theory. Roughly the size of the first solvation shell of the ion.

4 What do you think is the typical size that needs to be taken into account in applying the Stokes law to ion mobility? Roughly the van-der-Waals size of the ion. Roughly the size of the “ion atmosphere” according to Debye-Hückel theory. Roughly the size of the first solvation shell of the ion. Note that this is a rough estimate only. The hydrodynamic radius can be smaller than that, and ion-ion interaction can also contribute to the “effective viscosity” of the solution.

5 Is the thermodynamic force a real force acting on the molecules in solution?
Yes. No.

6 Is the thermodynamic force a real force acting on the molecules in solution?
Yes. No. FTD is not a real force, rather a tendency for molecules to move in a particular direction (e.g. due to a concentration gradient). It can be understood as an “effective force”. Dimensions of FTD: force per amount of substance [FTD] = N·mol-1 FTD is a molar quantity!
