Consider Frick's first law of steady state diffusion, which states
the flow vector J_i for species i is proportional to the

Hi Horace,
Another typo: Frick instead of Fick.
All these macroscopic phenomena you discuss regarding the motion of
ions in an electrolyte boil down, at the atomic scale, to the electric
force, don't you agree?
In any case, in a dense conductor, whether liquid or solid or even a
dense gas such

That's a funny one! Must have been a Freudian slip. 8^)

But Rich, like others who mentioned this before (as I recall Mike
Carrell did), is right that the component of the internal field due to
the *externally* applied DC Electric field in some SPAWAR experiments,
through insulating walls, should rapidly reach zero in the electrolyte
and stay there.

Therefore ion motion in the electrolyte proper is mostly
due to random walk and concentration gradients.

The ion motion is due to a force, what kind of force do you think, the
concentration gradient force? It's of course an electric force,
