Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Stokes-Einstein equation relates the diffusion coefficient (D) of a particle inversely to its radius (r), implying that if the radius of one particle is twice that of another, its diffusion coefficient will be half as much.

According to the Stokes-Einstein Equation, If the Radius of One
