Answer:

Soda

Sodas go flat through diffusion. Air has a lower concentration of that bubbly carbon dioxide than the drink does, so the CO2 molecules depart the beverage and spread into the air.

Tea

Stirring loose tea leaves into hot water (using a teabag includes osmosis as water flows into the teabag) causes the chemicals that make tea to diffuse into the water, producing the all-important beverage.

Explanation:

The textbook definition of diffusion is the movement of molecules or particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, continuing until equilibrium is reached. The defining quality of diffusion is that it takes place because the diffusing substance exists in a higher concentration in one place and a lower concentration in another. If the substance moves for a different reason, such as pressure or force, that’s not diffusion. To get scientific with it, diffusion means a passive movement of molecules down a concentration gradient.
