What does diffusion explain?
What does diffusion explain?
- The movement of particles due to external forces
- The movement of particles from a region of lower concentration to one of higher concentration
- The movement of particles in a random pattern
- The movement of particles from a region of higher concentration to one of lower concentration (correct)
What happens when the concentrations are equal in molecular diffusion?
What happens when the concentrations are equal in molecular diffusion?
- The molecules start moving in the opposite direction
- The molecules continue to move, but the process of molecular diffusion has ceased (correct)
- The molecules start moving faster
- The molecules stop moving completely
