Question

some solids diffuse in liquids not is gases,some solids diffuse in gases but not in liquids.why?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

generally it depends on particles size. ... there is less intermolecular space between particles of water than in air so particles of solid and liquid are packed tightly. and some solids diffuse in air because they need more intermolecular space that air can provide but water can not

Answer 2

Explanation:

Generally it depends on particles size. ... there is less intermolecular space between particles of water than in air so particles of solid and liquid are packed tightly. and some solids diffuse in air because they need more intermolecular space that air can provide but water can not.

Molecules move more freely in gases than solids,so the solid can diffuse easily and there is a lot of room for the diffused molecules to travel,but same is not the cas for liquids,

Just in case the diffused molecules of solid has a larger size than that of liquid molecules,then there will less room for it diffuse.

Hope it helps.

Thank you.
