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.

∙ 12y agothe rate of diffusion depends on the surface area, an increase in the temperature and pressure will result in the increased rate of diffusion.
in addition, diffiusion depends on the size of the molecule. the larger the molecule, the slow the rate of diffusion and th smeller the size of the molecule the faster the rate of diffusion.

How does a selectively permeable membrane affect diffusion?
Factors that influence rate of diffusionThe rate of diffusion depends on the concentration difference across the two sides of the membrane.The rate depends on the permeability of the plasma membrane to the diffusing substance.The rate of diffusion depends on the temperature of the solution.The rate of diffusion through a membrane is also directly proportional to the surface area of the membrane, which can be increased by such adaptations as microvilli.the thickness of the cell membranethe mass of the solute particlesthe difference in the initial concentration gradient*these are also factors that influence the rate of diffusion between extracellular and intracellular environments
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 environmental factors affect diffusion?
Diffusion is affected by various environmental factors, like temperature.
Does hydrogen gas have a low rate of diffusion?
No, it is the lightest gas of the universe so has the highest rate of diffusion.
Does distance effect rate o diffusion?
Yes if the distance that the molecule has to travel is long then the rate of diffusion will be slower.
What are the factors which affect rate of diffusion?
the factors which affect rate of diffusion is the factors that mixing one substance to another.
What factors most affect the rate of diffusion in a liquid or agas?
Two factors which determine the rate of diffusion of a liquid in another liquid include temperature and particle size. The higher the temperature, the faster diffusion takes place, and the smaller the particle, the faster diffusion takes place.
What factors affect the diffusion rate?
Diffusion refers to the process where substances from a highly concentrated area move to a place with a lower concentration. The three factors that affect the rate of diffusion are temperature, concentration gradient and the molecular weight of the substances.
What are 3 factors that can have a effect on the rate of diffusion?
Diffusion rate varies with concentration difference, temperature and dimension of transfer path (area or distance).
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.
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.
What factor affects the rate of diffusion?
Diffusion refers to the process where substances from a highly concentrated area move to a place with a lower concentration. The three factors that affect the rate of diffusion are temperature, concentration gradient and the molecular weight of the substances.

Effect of molecular size on diffusion?
Molecular Diffusion Of Light
Factors affecting gas diffusion?
stomatal movements( it depends on light, temperature, condition of the plant, glucose & sucrose concentrations, ion concentrations....) , intra cellular gaps in spongy paranchyma, atmospheric & plant pressure, amount of gases in the atmosphere, ...... are the factors which effect the gas exchange.
The rate of diffusion depends on?
Concentration of molecules, size of particles and temperature
What factors affecting the diffusion?
There several physical factors that affect the rate at which particles diffuse. These include: the size of the particle, the temperature, the concentration difference, the diffusion distance, the surface area, and permeability.
