Abstract

Diffusion in concentrated, non‐ideal liquid solutions may take place not only through motion of single molecules but also through movement of groups of molecules, or “clusters.” Analyzing this cluster diffusion leads to predictions that the diffusion coefficient can vary with the square root of the usual activity corrections to diffusion. These predictions seem consistent with experiments, particularly in highly non‐ideal solutions.
