molecules go with the concentration gradient, depending if the cell is hypotonic or hypertonic (research that.)
AnswerBecause the molecules of solute are mutually repelled but are attracted to the molecules of the solvent. They therefore tend to spread throughout the solvent until they are evenly distributed.Actual AnswerMolecules diffuse because they are always randomly moving around (brownian motion). The molecules have no real sense of high or low concentration. It's their random movement that make it seem like they go from high to low concentration.

What kinds of molecules freely diffuse across a semipermeable membrane?
Water molecules freely diffuse across a semipermeable membrane.
What things diffuse into?
The molecules of food and oxygen diffuse into cells. oh and btfw co2 and waste chemicals diffuse ut of cells. im in year 3
What type of compound would easily diffuse into the cell?
Small, nonpolar molecules such as oxygen and carbon dioxide can easily diffuse into the cell membrane due to their ability to pass through the lipid bilayer. Hydrophobic compounds also diffuse across the membrane more readily than hydrophilic compounds.
Why do sugar molecules not diffuse through a plant cell membrane?
Sugar molecules do not diffuse through a plant cell membrane because they are too large and polar to pass through the hydrophobic interior of the lipid bilayer. Instead, sugar molecules are transported across the membrane by specific transport proteins, such as sugar transporters, that facilitate their movement into the cell.
What would two substances do in everyday life that were spread around by diffusion?
Perfume molecules diffuse in the air to spread their scent across a room. Oxygen molecules in the air diffuse into our blood cells for respiration to provide energy for our bodies.
What type of molecules diffuse?
All types of molecules
How do you use diffuse in sentence?
Oxygen molecules diffuse across the membrane.
What kinds of molecules freely diffuse across a semipermeable membrane?
Water molecules freely diffuse across a semipermeable membrane.
Do molecules diffuse during equilibrium?
No.
Do all liquids diffuse the same way?
no because different molecules have different sizes. Smaller molecules will diffuse faster than larger molecules.
What determines how molecules are distributed in diffusion?
The concentration gradient is what causes molecules to diffuse.
How do molecules diffuse across membranes?

What is an organ in the human body where molecules diffuse into the body?
The Kidneys
Do larger molecules diffuse more readily than smaller molecules?
No, smaller molecules generally diffuse more readily than larger molecules because they can move through pores and gaps in substances more easily due to their smaller size. This is why smaller molecules like oxygen and carbon dioxide can diffuse through cell membranes more quickly than larger molecules like proteins.
What molecule is able to easily diffuse across the cell's membrane?
Carbon dioxide, oxygen and some nonpolar molecules diffuse easily.
Molecules diffuse from capillaries to body cells by moving through the?
