Diffusion is the process that allows the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the alveoli. This process is one of passive transport.

What is the gradient called that is the driving force for the movement of water and dissolved solutes from the arterial ends of blood capillaries?

The blood pressure in the capillaries at arterial end is about 25 to 30 mm of Mercury. The oncotic pressure of the plasma proteins is about 22 mm of mercury. So there is net force, which drives out the fluid in the interstitial space. The fluid is sucked back at the venous end of the capillaries by the oncotic pressure of the plasma proteins. It should be called as pressure gradient.
