Diffusion would happen quicker in gas because the particles in gas move at a higher rate than in liquid. Particles in liquid are also more uniform than that of gas deeming it to take a longer time to dissolve.

Is oxygen lighter than helium?
no. If it was, we would have oxygen balloons instead of helium balloons.
Difference between helium gas and oxygen gas?
Helium Oxide would be a compound of 2 elements: helium and oxygen but no such compound exists. Oxygen is just oxygen and nothing else. It is an element in its own right.
Is helium breathable?
Helium is breathable in the sense that it is perfectly nontoxic (it is the most inert of all elements) but of course, if you breathed pure helium you would suffer from lack of oxygen.
How many times faster helium diffuses than oxygen at room temperature calculate?
He molar mass = 4 g/molO2 molar mass = 32 g/mol Rate of diffusion is inversely related to the square root of the molar mass. √4 = 2 √32 = 5.7 5.7/2 = 2.8 So, He diffuses about 2.8 times faster than oxygen.
Why would crystals diffuse faster in hot water than in cold water?
It depends how saturated the salt solution is. The more saturated with salt, the faster crystals will form.
If you burst a balloon where would the helium go?
Into the atmosphere. I understand that, being a very light gas, the helium would gradually diffuse into outer space.
Is oxygen lighter than helium?
no. If it was, we would have oxygen balloons instead of helium balloons.
Can oxygen diffuse across a cell membrane?
Yes, how else would our cells obtain oxygen?
What elemnt has 2 Electrons Neutral Atoms?
The answerto that would be Helium.
Would a balloon float longer if it had 100 percent helium or half helium and half oxygen?
100% helium
Which would diffuse faster potassium permanganate at 0 degree celsius or at 100 degree celsius?
100 degree would probably diffuse faster than at 0 degree because 100 degree has a higher concentration
Would you name some gases?
helium,oxygen
What is the difference between oxygen and oxide?
Helium Oxide would be a compound of 2 elements: helium and oxygen but no such compound exists. Oxygen is just oxygen and nothing else. It is an element in its own right.
What is the difference between oxide and oxygen?

Difference between helium gas and oxygen gas?
Helium Oxide would be a compound of 2 elements: helium and oxygen but no such compound exists. Oxygen is just oxygen and nothing else. It is an element in its own right.
What nuclei fuse to form oxygen?
Oxygen is produced through repeated hydrogen fusion in stars. One such process would start with the hydrogen atoms fusing to form helium. And then the helium would fuse to form beryllium. That in turn would fuse to create oxygen.
Would a substance of high molecular weight diffuse faster than a substance of lower molecular weight?
yes, a substance of high molecular weight will diffuse faster than a substance of lower molecular weight since the molecules will absorb the liquid and easily soak the other molecules,all round,hence diffuse faster
