define diffusion. give the factors on which diffusion of gas in liquid depends
Answers
Diffusion :- The spontaneous movement of water or gaseous molecules from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration through a semi - permeable membrane is called Diffusion.
Ex :- The diffusion of oxygen in blood.
The diffusion of CO2 in water.
★The factors on which the diffusion of gases in liquid depends upon.
→ Temperature :- As temperature increases the rate of diffusion because the kinetic energy of gases molecules increases.
→Density of diffusing substance :- If their density is same they diffuse fastly.
→Medium of diffusion :- If medium of diffusion is more permeable fast diffusion occurs.
→Concentration gradient .
