Question

assertion: diffusion occurs readily in gas as compared to solids.reason: The particles of gas have greater space between them compared to solids.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Gases diffuse easily than liquids and solids. Because they have least inter molecular attractions among the particles and greater inter molecular spaces.

Answer 2

Answer:

Both statements are true and reasoning is the correct explanation of assertion.

Explanation:

We are given that:

Assertion: Diffusion occurs readily in gas as compared to solids.

Reason: The particles of gas have greater space between them compared to solids.​

Diffusion is defined as the movement of individual molecules of a substance from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.

It is true that diffusion occurs readily in gas as compared to solids.

The reason is they have least inter molecular attractions among the particles and greater inter molecular spaces.

So, both statements are true and reasoning is the correct explanation of assertion.
