Due to "inertia" and the nature of "mass", heavier particles require more energy to change their velocity. It takes more energy to make them move faster or slower or to change their "direction".
The average speed of particles in a substance is determined by the temperature of the substance. At higher temperatures, particles move faster, while at lower temperatures, particles move slower. This average speed is related to the kinetic energy of the particles.
In general lighter particles should diffuse faster than heavier particles, this could be extrapolated from the relationship to mass, volume, and energy. If we look at particles of all the same, ideal, substance, we would see that an object with less mass would be smaller but would also require less energy to move. That is, at the same temperature a particle of lower mass would move faster than a similar particle of heavier mass. We also see that smaller particles also maximize surface area/mass - this is also conducive to faster diffusion.
Particle speed is not directly related to the distance between particles. The speed of individual particles in a substance is determined by factors like temperature and pressure. However, the average speed of particles in a substance can affect the distance between particles indirectly by influencing the pressure exerted by the substance.
The speed of which new particles form is called the rate of reaction.
Speed and weight are related in that a heavier object requires more force to accelerate or decelerate, thus affecting its speed. In general, heavier objects tend to have lower speeds due to the increased force required to move them compared to lighter objects.
Heavier particles tend to move more slowly compared to lighter particles due to the increased inertia. This means that heavier particles require more force to accelerate or change direction. In a fluid medium, heavier particles may settle towards the bottom under the influence of gravity.

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.
Sand is generally heavier than silt because sand particles are larger and more dense than silt particles. The larger size and higher density of sand particles make them weigh more than silt particles.

The particles are heavier than water and sink instead of floating.
