We investigate the experimental limits of validity of the Stokes-Einstein equation. There is an important difference between diffusion and self-diffusion. There are experimental evidences, that in the case of self-diffusion the product D /T is constant and the equation is still valid. However, comparison of existing experimental data on viscosity and diffusion coefficients D of small, fast moving ions unambiguously show that the product D /T depends strongly on temperature T. The temperature dependence of diffusion coefficient declines from that of viscosity. Therefore, the Stokes-Einstein equation is not valid in this case.
