N2 due to its least mass.
Diluted ammonia would diffuse faster than concentrated ammonia because the particles are spread out more in the diluted solution, allowing for more collisions with the surrounding air molecules. This results in a quicker dispersion of ammonia molecules into the surrounding space compared to the more concentrated solution.
Ammonia would diffuse faster than hydrochloric acid because ammonia is a lighter molecule with a lower molecular weight, allowing it to move more quickly through a medium. Hydrochloric acid is a denser molecule with a higher molecular weight, which slows down its diffusion rate.
In liquid, there is less space to move so collisions are more frequent between the molecules causing a slower diffusion rate. The opposite happens in gases. There is more space in gases. As a result, there are less collisions between the molecules causing a faster diffusion rate. Other factors that may have an affect on diffusion rates are temperature, mass of the molecule, volume/surface area, and medium used.
Two gasses at the same temperature have the same average amount of kinetic energy per molecule. An ammonia (NH3) molecule has less mass than hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chloride, HCl) molecule. Since the NH3 has the same amount of kinetic energy as the more massive HCl, ammonia molecules will move faster and thus diffuse faster. Kinetic energy ~ 1/2*m*v2
Oxygen diffuses faster in air than in water because air has lower density and viscosity compared to water. This results in less resistance to the movement of oxygen molecules, allowing them to travel more quickly through the air compared to water. Additionally, the concentration of oxygen in air is higher than in water, further facilitating the diffusion process.
Nitrogen gas because it has the smallest molecular mass.............
Potassium permanganate would diffuse faster at 100 degrees Celsius compared to 0 degrees Celsius. This is because diffusion rates increase with temperature due to higher kinetic energy of molecules, leading to increased movement and spreading out more quickly.
A fluid would diffuse .
Cl2 has a molar mass of about 71 g/moleArgon has molar mass of about 40 g/mole Thus, Argon will diffuse faster than Cl2 gas, or put another way, Cl2 will diffuse slower than argon.
The molecules of a gas move faster at higher temperatures, which therefore speeds up diffusion.

No, substances with higher molecular weight typically diffuse more slowly than those with lower molecular weight due to larger size and greater interaction with surrounding molecules. Smaller molecules have less resistance to movement and can diffuse more easily across a membrane or through a solution.

O2 would diffuse into the cells, and CO2 would diffuse into the systemic capillaries.
In general lighter particles should diffuse faster than heavier particles, this could be extrapolated from the relationship to mass, volume, and energy. If we look at particles of all the same, ideal, substance, we would see that an object with less mass would be smaller but would also require less energy to move. That is, at the same temperature a particle of lower mass would move faster than a similar particle of heavier mass. We also see that smaller particles also maximize surface area/mass - this is also conducive to faster diffusion.
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.
