What happens for diffusion to occur?

two molecules must collied before diffusion happens.


When does the water evaporation happens?

Evaporation of water occur when the energy of water molecules from the surface is sufficiently high and the molecules can escape in the atmosphere.

A chemical reaction between oxygen and hydrogen occur.


What happens to water on the ground to cause evaporation to occur?

An temerature increase also increase the evaporation.


Where in a sunflower are sugar molecules produced?

As in all plants in the chloroplasts in cells. Most of this happens in the leaves, but can occur in any green part of the plant.


Why evaporation happens at the surface?

When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.


What occur when the number of molecules of a substance is equal in two areas?

Any diffusion occur.


Sticking properties of glues?

What makes glue "stick" or its attachment strength (adhesion) depends on a considerable number of factors. The most common factors for adhesion to occur are (individually or in combination): mechanical - where the adhesive fills pores on a substrate chemical bonding - interaction between atoms and molecules electrostatic forces - such as static electricity Van der Waals forces - similar to how Gecko lizards can climb surfaces Solvent diffusion - where the adhesive is deposited via a transport mechanism


Why does diffusion occur faster in hot water than in cold water?

This happens because the hotter a substance is, the faster its atoms or molecules are moving. They have more mobility and can get around faster.


Why do some molecules begin sticking together when you add in more molecules?

Consecutive links between these molecules are formed: polymerization occur.


When a dead short occur what happens to circuit resistance?

The circuit resistance is likely to gradually drop and in such case it will cause the circuit to burn down.
