Diffusion Quiz

Diffusion is the movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration until it is evenly distributed.

High Concentration means having a large amount of a specific particle in the same place.

Diffusion occurs mainly in gases and liquids because the particles in these states are free to move and can spread out to fill the available space.

<p>The relationship between the rate of diffusion and temperature is that as temperature increases, the rate of diffusion also increases because the particles move faster at higher temperatures.</p> Signup and view all the answers
