5) Choose the correct option after reading the statement 1 and 2? 1 point
STATEMENT 1: Probability of successful jumps of atoms from one site to other increases with
increasing temperature, and hence diffusivity increases with temperature.

STATEMENT 2: Flux depends on temperature, but diffusivity is independent of temperature.

Statement 1 is TRUE and Statement 2 is also TRUE

Statement 1 is FALSE but Statement 2 is TRUE

Statement 1 is FALSE and Statement 2 is also FALSE

Statement 1 is TRUE but Statement 2 is FALSE

No, the answer is incorrect.

Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
Statement 1 is TRUE but Statement 2 is FALSE

6) Choose the correct option after reading the statement 1 and 2? 1 point
Assertion: Interstitial diffusion is generally faster than substitutional diffusion.

Reason: Substitutional diffusion requires presence of vacancy and hence activation barrier for
substitutional diffusion has an extra term of ΔHv, which causes lower substitutional diffusion.

Assertion is TRUE and Reason is TRUE

Assertion is FALSE but Reason is TRUE

Assertion is FALSE and Reason is also FALSE

Assertion is TRUE but Reason is FALSE

No, the answer is incorrect.

Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
Assertion is TRUE and Reason is TRUE

7) Which of these equations defines Continuity equation (commonly known as Fick’s second 1 point
law). (where terms have their usual meaning)

∂C/∂x = D.(∂C/∂t)

∂C/∂t = D.(∂2C/∂x2)

∂C/∂x = D.(∂2C/∂t2)

∂C/∂t = D.(∂C/∂x)

No, the answer is incorrect.
