Interstellar space is quite different from the gaseous environments we commonly encounter on Earth. For instance, a typical density of the medium is about 1 atom cm−3 and that atom is typically H; the effective temperature due to stellar background radiation is about 10 kK. Estimate the diffusion coefficient and thermal conductivity of H under these conditions. Compare your answers with the values for gases under typical terrestrial conditions. Comment: Energy is in fact transferred much more effectively by radiation.
What is the mean free path of molecules in an ideal gas in which the mean collision time is 4.00 × 10-10 s, the temperature is 294K, and the mass of the molecules is 6.00 × 10-25 kg? Assume that the molecules are moving at their root-mean-square speeds. The Boltzmann constant is 1.38 × 10-23 J/K. GIve your answer in Angstroms ( 1 Angstrom = 10-10 m)
