It can. If you put an open bottle of perfume on the table, you'll be able to smell it at a distance after some time, because the perfume vapors--a gas--have diffused into the air.

Which gas will diffuse faster between bromine and chlorine and why?

Chlorine gas will diffuse faster than bromine gas because it has a lower molecular weight and therefore moves more quickly through a medium. The rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas, so lighter gases diffuse faster.


If it takes oxygen gas 12.5 seconds to diffuse from a container how long will it take sulfur dioxide gas to diffuse from the same container?

17.7 seconds


What gas diffuse from the tissues to the blood?

Both oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse from body tissues into the blood.


How do you get gas out of carpets?

Gases will naturally diffuse away, however more will diffuse back. Compression will decrease the amount of gas trapped at any one time.


If it takes helium gas (He) 5 seconds to diffuse from a container, how long will it take oxygen gas (O2) to diffuse from the same container?

14.1 - 14.14 seconds


Which gas is among CO2 CH4 H2 will diffuse faster and why?

H2 will diffuse fastest as it has the least molecular weight.


If it takes sulfur dioxide gas SO2 20 seconds to diffuse from a container how long will it take helium gas He to diffuse from the same container?

It will take helium gas (He) less time to diffuse than sulfur dioxide gas (SO2) due to its lower molecular weight. Diffusion rate is inversely proportional to the square root of molecular weight, so helium will diffuse faster than sulfur dioxide. Therefore, helium will likely diffuse from the container in less than 20 seconds.


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 of the following diffuse faster - honey sugar nitrogen gas?

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.


Which gas diffuses faster SO3 or O2?

Oxygen diffuse faster.


Would you expect the particles in Cl2 gas to diffuse faster or slower than the particles in argon gas?

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.
