I will use the sugar cube example.
Equilibrium is established as a result of diffusion. For example, consider placing a sugar cube into a beaker of water.
As the sugar cube dissolves, the sugar molecules diffuse throughout the beaker
When the beaker is left undisturbed, the concentration of the sugar molecules will eventually remain the same throughout the beaker.
Thus, equilibrium is established due to the same concentration of the sugar molecules throughout the beaker.

∙ 9y agoEquilibrium is achieved when concentrations of a substance in two solutions become equal. This happens through diffusion, where molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration to establish balance.

∙ 11y agoDuring diffusion, particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration of particles. This diffusion occurs until equilibrium is reached, which is when both areas are balanced out so that they both have the same concentration of particles as each other.

∙ 12y agoDiffusion is when there is an imbalance of substances in a mixture, and the substances spread themselves out. Eventually, the substance will be evenly distributed around the area. For example, when you spray air freshener, it spreads around the room and out the door. It will eventually even out, but then you can't smell it since it had to cover a large area.

∙ 9y agoDiffusion results in equilibrium because molecules eventually attempt to align on a particular gradient. Diffusion always stops when balance is reached.

What state does diffusion eventually lead to?
Well if the diffusion is not interrupted by other influences it would be equilibrium because the concentration of molecules will be the same throughout the space the molecules occupy.
What condition does diffusion eventually lead in the absence of the other influences?
equilibrium because the concentration of molecules will be the same throughout the space the molecules occupy.
Diffusion stops when molecules reach the?
equilibrium :)
Does diffusion cause a concentration gradient?
Diffusion is the result of a concentration gradient. When there is a higher concentration of a substance on one side of a barrier than on the other side, the molecules move across the barrier to try and establish equilibrium. This process is diffusion. Diffusion of water is specifically called osmosis. While diffusion occurs in living things, equilibrium is never reached. In an organism, equilibrium is the result of death.
What are the conditions that exists when diffusion of a particular substance is complete?
Particles tend to move from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated, a process known as diffusion. When the concentration of a solute is the same throughout a system, the system has reached equilibrium.
Toward what condition does diffusion eventually lead in the absence of other influences-?
equilibrium QUEENSCENE: yes, equilibrium because the concentration of molecules will be the same throughout the space the molecules occupy.
What is the eventual result of diffusion describe concentration prior to and at this point?
The eventual result of diffusion is equilibrium. The concentrations prior to this point would be uneven. The solutes then diffuse from areas of high solute concentration to areas of low solute concentration. After diffusion, at equilibrium, the concentration will be even in different areas.
What is the eventual result of the cellulare process of diffusion?
the eventual result of cellular deffusion is dynamic equilibrium. - answered by Duncan Lint
Why diffusion eventually results equilibrium?
During diffusion, particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration of particles. This diffusion occurs until equilibrium is reached, which is when both areas are balanced out so that they both have the same concentration of particles as each other.
How is equilibrium related to diffusion and osmosis?
The process of diffusion or osmosis aims to reach equilibrium.
What state does diffusion eventually lead to?
Well if the diffusion is not interrupted by other influences it would be equilibrium because the concentration of molecules will be the same throughout the space the molecules occupy.

equilibrium because the concentration of molecules will be the same throughout the space the molecules occupy.

equilibrium :)
When does diffusion end?
When an equilibrium has been met.
Is equilibrium part of osmosis or diffusion?
yes
When does diffusion and thus osmosis stops?
When the system is at balance or at equalibrium, diffusion stops..
