why is diffusion rate slow in cold water

Answer 1

Diffusion is the mixing of molecules due to their random motion, whether in a liquid or a gas. Because molecules in cold water have less kinetic energy than in warm water, the diffusion process is much slower than in warm water.

Answer 2

Answer:

As we know that the diffusion is the mixing of molecules due to their random motion. It may be in liquid or gas. And as we also know that the kinetic energy of molecules is directly proportional to temperature. So, in cold water there is less kinetic energy (less random motion) then diffusion rate also bocome slow.
