Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, driven by random thermal motion. This process results in the equal distribution of molecules in a given space over time.
When there is no net movement of molecules after diffusion has occurred, it is called equilibrium. At this point, the concentration of molecules is equal on both sides of the membrane, resulting in no further movement of molecules.
Yes, the energy generated by the movement of molecules is called heat energy. This movement causes the molecules to vibrate and collide, which produces thermal energy that we perceive as heat.
The movement of sucrose molecules is called diffusion, which is the process of molecules spreading out from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This movement occurs until equilibrium is reached.
That is called thermal energy, which refers to the vibration and movement of atoms and molecules within substances.
It is a state of equilibrium when there is no net movement of molecules, meaning that the concentrations of molecules are equal on both sides of a barrier. This can occur in a closed system where the rate of molecules moving in one direction is equal to the rate of molecules moving in the opposite direction.
The movement of molecules from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration is called diffusion. This process occurs spontaneously and does not require external energy input.
The movement of molecules from great concentration to lesser concentration is called diffusion. However when dealing water molecules it is referred to as osmosis.
Random Motion
it is called passive transport
At equilibrium, the movement of molecules reaches a state of balance where the rate of forward and reverse reactions are equal. This means that the molecules continue to move, but their overall distribution remains constant.
When molecules reach equilibrium, diffusion stops. This occurs when there is an equal concentration of molecules on both sides of the membrane and no net movement.
