Is it linear? the higher the temperature the higher diffusion rate (all other conditions are same). Imagine putting the same sample under different temperatures and comparing the diffusion.. Is the graph going to be curving? why? please explain with details, maybe an explained formula as well? Thank you!

This questions is regarding a situation with a dialysis bag, 'membrane', between the substance and the solution. According to the results, at cold 5C the diffusion is slow, then much higher at 20C then a little lower than that at 30C and Much higher again at 60C. Why would it behave this way? Or is this an error? Why would you predict a non-linear relationship, where higher temperatures induce a little less higher rate of diffusion? thank you

If you go to the page I've indicated in the refernce section it gives the relationship between diffusion and temperature. No, it's not linear--it's exponential, but it's all explained in the reference.
