Because the molecules have more kinetic energy.
Diffusion results from collisions between moving molecules. If the molecules are moving faster, they will collide more frequently. That will make them spread out, or diffuse, more quickly.
Temperature affects the rate of diffusion, by speeding up the movement of molecules. For example it kind of like when going from water to steam. The water molecule get heat added and speed up, like that of diffusion.
The acts as a catalyst to speed up the diffusion process, allowing the molecules to overcome it; the activation energy causes the reaction to proceed at the faster rate.
When speaking about deviation from ideal gas behavior, an increase in temperature will result in the molecules having less time to interact as they pass by each other. A low temperature will permit more time for the molecules to interact, as they are moving at a slower speed than a higher temperature molecule. Hope that helps!

This depends on the speed of diffusion.
I'm pretty sure it would slow down the rate of diffusion, because higher tempuratures increase the rate of diffusion.
At higher temperatures, atoms and molecules have more kinetic energy, and they will diffuse more easily. Diffusion rates are proportional to temperature. The hotter it is, the higher the diffusion rates we will see.
the collision theoryFaster diffusion will take place if the surroundings are warmer. Increase in temperature means an increase in molecules' speed (kinetic energy). So the molecules move faster and there will be more spontaneous spreading of the material which means that diffusion occurs quicker.
Increasing the temperature will increase the speed. Remember Dalton's theory: Particles at a higher temperature tend to move faster on average than particles at a lower temperature.
