Number of particles is given by $n = - D\frac{{{n_2} - {n_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}}$ crossing a unit area perpendicular to $X-$axis in unit time, where ${n_1}$ and ${n_2}$ are number of particles per unit volume for the value of $x$ meant to ${x_2}$ and ${x_1}$. Find dimensions of $D$ called as diffusion constant
