How does the rate of diffusion in a gelatin at room temperature compare with the rate of diffusion in water at the same temperature?
The rate of diffusion in gelatin at room temperature is very slow. This is especially compared to the rate of diffusion in water at the same temperature.
Compare the rate of diffusion in a gelatin vs the rate of diffusion in water?
The rate is way higher in water, because of its fluidity.
How long does it take for diffusion to occur?
Diffusion will constantly take place. However the net transfer of particles will cease when a concentration equilibrium occurs. I.e. you have a piece of iron with 0% carbon. you put it into a 20% carbon atmosphere. The carbon will diffuse into the iron until the concentration of carbon is the same in both the iron and the atmosphere. Diffusion will then still occur, but there will be diffusion to the bar and diffusion from the bar at the same rate.
Facilitated diffusion depends on?
Facilitated diffusion is a type of active transport that lets certain chemicals into a cell. This process relies on surface proteins.
Why is diffusion important to animals?
Because diffusion is how chemicals travel in and out of the animal's cells. If diffusion didn't occur then the animal would die.
What is diffusion rate proportional to?
rate of diffusion depends on the concentration gradient, surface area, distance over which diffusion takes place, size and nature of the diffusing molecule.
Effect of molecular size on diffusion?
Molecular Diffusion Of Light
What are factors on which rate of diffusion depends?
Diffusion depends on where the higher and lower concentrations of solutes are (molecules move from high to low concentration), what kind of membrane (if any) the molecules are moving through, and in many cases how large and charged the molecules are.
What happens to rate of diffusion on heating?
On heating the rate of Diffusion increases..
What is the effect of the density of liquid on the rate of diffusion?
The increase in density will decrease the rate of diffusion. There is an inverse relation between density and rate of diffusion.
How do temperature effect the rate of diffusion?
higher temp = higher rate of diffusion
As partial pressure increases what happens to the rate of diffusion?
Rate of diffusion will increase.
How does the rate of diffusion in a gelatin at room temperature compare with the rate of diffusion in water at the same temperature?
The rate of diffusion in gelatin at room temperature is very slow. This is especially compared to the rate of diffusion in water at the same temperature.
Why diffusion is maximum in gases?
rate of diffusion is inversely proposnal to density, density of gas is less. so diffusion rate is high
What influences the rate of diffusion?
The rate of diffusion increases with temperature. The rate of diffusion also increases with the concentration gradient and the surface area.
Does a temperature increase increase the rate of diffusion?
yes the higher the temprature the quicker the rate of diffusion
Compare the rate of diffusion in a gelatin vs the rate of diffusion in water?
The rate is way higher in water, because of its fluidity.
