Best Answer

Molecules move from an area from where there is a high concentration to an area where there is a low concentration.

This occurs until equilibrium is reach.

After equilibrium is reached, diffusion still occurs. (but in "equal trade")

Diffusion is caused by the random movements of molecules.

Although diffusion is relatively slow, it does not require input energy to take place, as it involves the random movement of particles.

Diffusion happens because particles in gases and liquids move about. however diffusion would be greater in gas than in liquid
