Yes, distance does affect the rate of diffusion. Generally, the greater the distance, the slower the rate of diffusion because particles have to travel a longer distance to reach their destination. This means that it takes more time for molecules to move across a greater distance through a medium.
larger the size, the smaller the surface area to volume ratio, hence the slower the rate of diffusion into the agar jelly :)
An increase in the number of gas particles will lead to a higher rate of diffusion because there will be more particles available to move and spread out. Higher temperature will also increase the rate of diffusion as the particles will have more energy to move faster. Both factors contribute to more frequent and energetic collisions between gas molecules, promoting diffusion.
No, it is the lightest gas of the universe so has the highest rate of diffusion.
No, increasing the distance between particles does not speed up the rate of diffusion. In fact, diffusion rate is influenced by factors such as concentration gradient, temperature, and particle size but not necessarily distance alone. The rate of diffusion is generally slower over larger distances.
higher temp = higher rate of diffusion
The increase in density will decrease the rate of diffusion. There is an inverse relation between density and rate of diffusion.

Three factors that can affect the rate of diffusion are the concentration gradient (difference in concentration between two areas), the temperature (higher temperatures generally increase diffusion rates), and the surface area available for diffusion (larger surface areas allow for more molecules to diffuse at once).
rate of diffusion depends on the concentration gradient, surface area, distance over which diffusion takes place, size and nature of the diffusing molecule.
Sucrose can affect diffusion as it can slow down the movement of molecules across a membrane. This is because sucrose is a larger molecule compared to other substances commonly involved in diffusion. It can create a barrier that hinders the rate of diffusion.

Higher temperature will also increase the rate of diffusion as the particles will have more energy to move faster.

Temperature and diffusion rates are usually linearly proportional. As temperature increases diffusion rate also increases and vice versa. In most cases, diffusion rate will reach 0 after saturation or the maximum possible temperature.
the collision theoryFaster diffusion will take place if the surroundings are warmer. Increase in temperature means an increase in molecules' speed (kinetic energy). So the molecules move faster and there will be more spontaneous spreading of the material which means that diffusion occurs quicker.

Increasing the chloride ion concentration will generally increase its rate of diffusion in agar. This is because a higher concentration gradient will drive chloride ions to diffuse more rapidly through the agar medium. Ultimately, diffusion rate is directly proportional to the concentration gradient of the solute.
