The distance between the areas of higher and lower concentration can affect the rate of diffusion.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a partially permeable membrane.
The diffusion of particles tends to even out their concentration across a given region.
The rate of diffusion depends on temperature, surface area, and concentration gradient.
Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to low concentration.
The rate of diffusion depends on the concentration gradient across the diffusion pathway.
The presence of a catalyst can increase the rate of diffusion.
Increasing temperature increases the kinetic energy of molecules, leading to more frequent collisions with other molecules and an increase in the rate of diffusion.
Diffusion occurs when there is a difference in concentration or pressure on either side of a semi-permeable membrane.
What is diffusion?
Diffusion is the net (overall) movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
In what states can diffusion occur?
Liquids and gases as the particles are free to move around.
What type of molecules can diffuse through the cell membrane?
Very small molecules like glucose, amino acids, water and oxygen.
What is the first step of diffusion?
Particles move through the cell membrane from where there is a higher concentration to where there is a lower concentration and they are moving in random motion.
