They spread out and equalize to the source of the diffusion.

Would fat particles more likely be brought into a cell then oxygen particles?

No, fat particles are too large to diffuse easily through the cell membrane. Oxygen particles, being smaller, can diffuse freely into cells for cellular respiration.


What describes the properties of solids liquids and gases in terms of the motion of particles?

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


Why gas particles diffuse more slowly through aluminum that through rubber?

Gas particles diffuse more slowly through aluminum than through rubber because aluminum has a higher density and more closely packed structure, which impedes the movement of gas particles. In contrast, rubber has a more porous and flexible structure that allows gas particles to move more freely and diffuse more quickly.


What type of particles can diffuse?

Gas and liquid particles can diffuse because they are free to move around unlike solid particles that can only vibrate on the spot but cannot move from place to place.(Hope I have answered your question :P )


What happens to sugar in water in terms of particles?

When sugar is added to water, the sugar molecules dissolve in the water to form a homogeneous solution. This results in the sugar particles spreading out and becoming evenly distributed within the water, with no visible sugar particles remaining.

Why do some particles diffuse quicker than others?

Particles diffuse at different rates due to differences in their size, shape, and mass. Smaller, lighter particles diffuse quicker than larger, heavier particles because they can move more easily through the medium in which they are diffusing. Additionally, the temperature and concentration gradient of the medium can also affect the diffusion rate of particles.

What happens to a sugar particle inside a visking tubing and water particles outside?

The sugar particle will diffuse from an area of higher concentration (inside the tubing) to an area of lower concentration (outside the tubing) until equilibrium is reached. Water molecules will also move into the tubing to balance the concentration gradient as the sugar particles diffuse out.


Do lighter gas particles diffuse less rapidly than heavier gas particles?

No, lighter gas particles diffuse more rapidly than heavier gas particles because they have higher average speeds due to their lower masses. This means they can move more quickly through a medium, leading to faster diffusion rates.


Which particles can diffuse easily througn a cell membrane?

Oxygen


How can you tell which direction particles will diffuse in?

Particles will diffuse from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration to reach equilibrium. This process is driven by the random motion of particles. The direction of diffusion can be predicted by following the concentration gradient, where particles will move towards areas of lower concentration.


When particles diffuse. from what concentration to what concentration do they diffuse?

Particles diffuse from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This is driven by the natural tendency for particles to move from regions of higher energy to regions of lower energy in order to achieve equilibrium.


In what direction do particles natural diffuse?

Down concentration gradients.
