    Why is the diffusion coefficient in Fick's law squared?

    Hi there, I'm trying to wrap my head around Fick's first law of diffusion (for one dimension): J_{x} = -D \frac{\partial \phi}{\partial x} I understand that \phi is the concentration in units amount/volume and that x is position on the gradient in units length. What I don't understand...
