Liquids do, but solids do not.
The time it takes for solids to diffuse depends on various factors such as the size of the particles, temperature, concentration gradient, and the medium in which diffusion is taking place. In general, diffusion of solids can be a slow process compared to liquids or gases due to the limited movement of solid particles.
Solids can diffuse through a process called solid-state diffusion, where atoms or molecules migrate within the solid material without a change in the state of matter. Diffusion in solids usually happens at higher temperatures when there is enough thermal energy for atoms or molecules to move around. The rate of diffusion in solids is generally slower compared to liquids or gases.
Nitrogen gas will diffuse the fastest because gases diffuse more rapidly than liquids or solids due to their higher molecular speeds and lack of intermolecular forces that impede diffusion. Honey and sugar are viscous liquids and will diffuse more slowly due to their higher molecular weight and stronger intermolecular forces.
Solid - Particles vibrate and rotate about a fixed position and do not diffuse measurably Liquid - Particles move freely in all directions slowly and diffuse slowly Gas - Particles move freely in all directions rapidly and diffuse rapidly
Solids: Examples of non-polar solids include wax and plastic. Liquids: Examples of non-polar liquids include hexane and toluene.
No. The particles in the solids have different mass as the particles in the liqiuds, so they diffuse at the different rate. but if their particles have the same rate, they will diffuse at the same rate.

It is harder to digest solids because you have to chew, then your body has to break everything in the solids down, for when you digest liquids it only has to take out proteins. Vince-liquid is easily digested but solids are not
Matter doesn't move easily in solids.
how am i suposed to know
solids can diffuse but not in an easy way because they are to tightly packed together
Solids are not easily compressible because there is little free space between particles. Source: http://www.chem.purdue.edu/gchelp/liquids/character.html
The intermolecular force of attraction between the particles of solid is greater than liquid and due to this minimum space is found between the particles of solid. That's why liquids diffuse much faster than solids.
Liquids have weaker intermolecular forces compared to solids, allowing their molecules to move past each other more easily. In solids, the molecules are tightly packed and held in place by strong intermolecular forces, limiting their ability to flow.
