Which state of matter diffusion would occur faster solid liquid or gas?

Diffusion happens fastest in a gas. Since gases have more space than liquids, molecules are free to move around without colliding into other molecules. The result is that diffusion will happen faster.


What is the spreading out of a substance?

A non-solid. The particles are really spread out in a gas, and less spread-out in a liquid.


What is atomic diffusion?

Atomic diffusion refers to the process where the random thermal agitation of atoms in a solid results in the net transport of atoms. An example would be helium gas escaping from a balloon, which causes it to deflate.
