5 Questions
What factors affect the rate of molecular diffusion?
Temperature, viscosity, and particle size
What is the result of diffusion?
Gradual mixing of material leading to uniform distribution of molecules
What happens once the concentrations of molecules are equal?
Molecules continue to move, but the process of molecular diffusion has ceased
What is the term used to describe the equilibrium established when molecules are in motion but the concentrations are equal?
Dynamic equilibrium
What governs the process of diffusion when there is no concentration gradient?
Self-diffusion, originating from the random motion of the molecules
