The force by which high concentrations of ions disperse away from each other and thus spread evenly through a solution is called:
A)Electrostatic pressure
B)Force of diffusion
C)Repulsion
D)The law of electrostatic repulsion

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The force by which high concentrations of ions disperse away from each other and thus spread evenly through a solution is known as the force of diffusion. Option A, electrostatic pressure, may refer to the force that causes charged particles to repel or attract each other, but it does not specifically describe the dispersal of ions in a solution. Option C, repulsion, is too general and does not specifically describe the dispersal of ions or the force causing it. Option D, the law of electrostatic repulsion, refers to the principle that like charges repel, but it does not specifically describe the dispersal of ions in a solution.
