In the Microporous Mem Brane Model, Transport Flux is Increased

Question

In the microporous mem brane model, transport flux is Increased by
A) Increasing the thickness of the mem brane
B) Increasing the length of each pore
C) Decreasing the difference in concentration across the mem brane
D) Increasing the size of the s olute
E) Increasing the number of pores per unit area of membrane

Accepted Answer

Increasing the number of pores per unit area of the membrane enhances the transport flux by providing more pathways for molecules to pass through, thus facilitating increased movement across the membrane.
