What is the relationship between diffusion and concentration gradient?
Answers
The concentration gradient therefore represents the concept that, just as a ball rolls down a slope, during diffusion molecules move down the concentration gradient. Higher concentration gradients will result in higher rates of diffusion. As the molecules move the gradient evens out until equilibrium is reached.

________________________________
diffusion V/s concentration gradient
~ The concentration of a substance is defined as the number of solute molecules that can be found within a given volume.
~ Simple diffusion can only move material in the direction of a concentration gradient; facilitated diffusion moves materials with and against a concentration gradient.
~ Concentration gradient, size of the particles that are diffusing, and temperature of the system affect the rate of diffusion.
~ Diffusion is the passive movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
