Diffusion is the movement of particles (atoms, ions or molecules) from a region in which they are in higher concentration to regions of lower concentration. A good example of diffusion is food colouring. If you place a drop of red food colouring in a beaker of water eventually the entire beaker of water will have a red tint. The food colouring moved through the water until it was equally distributed throughout the beaker. Diffusion takes place along a concentration gradient. A concentration gradient exists until the diffused substance is evenly distributed

A concentration gradient exists until the diffused substance is evenly distributed.
Other everyday examples of diffusion are:
1. Sugar will diffuse through tea until the entire cup of tea is sweet. (We stir the tea to speed up the diffusion.)
2. The odour of food cooking diffuses throughout the kitchen. If you open the kitchen door it will spread into the next room.
The movement of these molecules is said to be passive. No energy is needed to be provided. The natural kinetic energy of the particles supplies the energy.
Examples of diffusion in science are:
1. Carbon dioxide entering the stomata of leaves.
2. Oxygen diffusing out of the stomata and lenticels of leaves.

diffusion -1 -can occur in any median .2- movement of molecules from higher conceration to lower conceration .
osomois -1- occur in liquid median .2- movement of molecules from higher conceration to lower conceration areas though semi premble membrane
