Xenon has a relative mass of 131.293. A gas which diffuses 1.86 times faster would have a mass of 37.950 approx. The nearest gas is Argon with a mass of 39.948.
The rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely related to the molecular weight of that gas. The lighter the gas, the faster it diffuses. Hydrogen is the lightest of all gases having a molecular weight of only 2. Thus it diffuses faster than all others.
CO diffuses faster than CO2 because it is a smaller molecule
It diffuses equally throughout the container so that the concentration of that gas is equal throughout it as long as the lid is on.
gas diffuses through the air faster when their is more energy (heat) causing air particles to move and mix faster than normal when a gas is cooled the particles are forced to squeeze together there for stopping diffusion. D.Smith age 11
Nitrogen
Both oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse from body tissues into the blood.
o2 diffuses into blood from alveoli of lungs through the respiratory membran.
moving randomly
Gas exchange takes place in the alveoli of the lungs and in the capillaries. The direct process of gas exchange occurs in alveoli located within the lungs. Blood is sent from the heart through pulmonary arteries, exchanging the carbon dioxide within erythrocytes (red blood cells) for oxygen provided by the air lungs store when inhaling. In the capillaries, oxygen diffuses through the capillary walls into the tissues, and carbon dioxide diffuses from the tissues into the capillaries.
oxygen
When a gas diffuses, it merely spreads out through the volume available to it. It will accordingly become less intense.

Gas diffuses in space.
Yes, Oxygen diffuses through the wall of the alveoli then through the walls of the capillaries. :)
carbon
Oxygen diffuses into cells. Carbon dioxide diffuses out.
