In this case diffusion is the action of two gases towards each other and eventually evenly mixing. This is a chemistry term and is sometimes confused with the Biology term diffusion, in which some particle moves from an area of high pressure to low pressure. Effusion is generally a chemistry term and is more specific. It is the passing of molecule through a small hole. These molecules are usually gas particles, and there is no collision between the molecules as they pass through.

∙ 14y agoThese two are pretty different. In fact, they are pretty close to opposite.
Fusion is a matter of putting things together. The word fusion is related to the word fuse, meaning join.
Diffusion is a matter of dispersing things. Diffusion is making things diffuse.

What is the difference between the sun's energy and a nuclear power plant?
the sun is powered by fusion, the power plant by fission
What is the difference between fission rector and fusion rector?
Fission means that heavy atoms are split, and converted into smaller ones. Fusion means that light atoms are combined to form heavier atoms.
What is the difference between the use of fission as an energy source?
The difference between the use of fission and fusion as an energy source is that in fusion reaction, 2 or more light atomic nuclei fuses to form single heavier nucleus while in fission reaction, heavy atomic nucleus is usually splited into smaller nuclei, other particles and radiation.
What is different between fusion and non fusion welding?
Fusion is the blending of elements and can only be achieved by melting. Welding by definition is fusion. Brazing ,soldering etc are non fusing.
What is the difference between dilution and diffusion?

What is the difference between diffusion and facilitate diffusion?
The difference between diffusion and facilitated diffusion is that facilitated diffusion is that the molecules pass through special protein channels.

What is the difference between bulk motion and diffusion?
The difference between the two is that bulk motion is the flow through the capillary. Diffusion is the movement of the molecules in a fluid.Ê
What is the difference between gillette fusion phantom and gillette fusion gamer?
There is no difference except for the colours and design.
Why is cultural diffusion important to the study of geography?
It helps figure out the fusion of diffusion.
Is there a difference between binary fusion and cell division?
Yes
What is the difference between relocation and expansion diffusion?
Expansion diffusion means that the diffusion expands in the area you are in. Relocation diffusion is when you have spread something where you are, and then move(relocate) somewhere else, spreading it there as well.
What is the difference between identity achievement and identity diffusion?
achievement you understand who u are as diffusion u dont know who u are
What controls the rate of diffusion?
The rate of diffusion is directly related to the concentration of gradient. For example, the greater the amount between the concentration of the areas, the greater the greater to difference in diffusion.
