Best Answer

Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. A fair example of diffusion is a small amount of dye being added to a container of water. The dye would slowly spread or diffuse causing the colour of the water to change and the colour of the dye to be equally distributed among the water.
