Diffusion occurs with all molecules, but for many solids, it is an extraordinarily slow process at normal temperatures. Solids in contact with other solids may exchange a few molecules per second, and some may "jump back" again. The diffusion speed can be increased by raising the substances to high temperatures, giving the exterior molecules greater energy.
What else can I help you with?
Are solids gases and liquids substances?
Yes, all are substances.
Do liquids and solids diffuse easily?
No, liquids and solids do not diffuse as easily as gases due to their tightly packed molecular structure and lower kinetic energy. Diffusion in liquids is generally slower than in gases, but it can still occur over time. In solids, diffusion is even slower due to the rigid arrangement of molecules.
Can diffusion mix?
Of course, especially liquids and gases, but even solids, especially at high temperature
What has the author W Jost written?
W. Jost has written: 'Diffusion in solids, liquids, gases'
Diffusion occurs both in liquids and gases but hardly at all in solids?
Diffusion in solids is slower because the particles are tightly packed and have limited mobility. In gases, diffusion is faster due to the high kinetic energy of the particles and the absence of strong intermolecular forces. In liquids, diffusion is slower compared to gases but still occurs because the particles have more freedom to move than in solids.
Does diffusion take place in all types substances?
Diffusion can occur in all types of substances, including solids, liquids, and gases. It is a passive process where particles move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration to achieve equilibrium.

What substances can sound waves pass through?
Sound waves can pass through solids, liquids, and gases. The speed and efficiency of sound transmission can vary between different substances, with solids generally transmitting sound waves more effectively than liquids or gases.
What item has a fixed volume solids liquids or gases?
solids and liquids
How will you justify that interparticle space are present in matter?
Interparticle space in matter can be justified by observing the behavior of substances under different conditions. For example, gases occupy a larger volume than liquids and solids, indicating that particles are far apart and have significant space between them. Additionally, the compressibility of gases compared to liquids and solids further demonstrates that interparticle space exists, as gas particles can be pushed closer together. Lastly, the diffusion of substances, such as the mixing of gases or liquids, illustrates that particles move through the spaces between them.
What makes up solids liquids and gases?
Molecules - They are more tightly packed in solids than liquids and gases
