"Diffusion - How atoms move through solids" Diffusion means mass transport by atomic motion. The mechanisms of Gases & Liquids is known as random (Brownian) motion and for solids is known vacancy diffusion or interstitial diffusion. Simply we can define diffusion as‚ the movement of particles in a solid from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration‚ resulting in the uniform distribution of the substance. (Diffusion chapter 5‚ 2008‚ p.1) Ronald D. Kriz(1999) suggests that

Ronald Wilson Pd:4th 11/16/12 Introduction In this experiment diffusion and osmosis is the main idea. When using diffusion and osmosis you are trying to separate different solute concentrations on either side of the membrane. Only a solute’s relative concentration‚ or water potential‚ affects the rate of osmosis. The higher the concentration of solutes‚ the faster water will flow through the membrane to equalize the concentration. The way we describe the movement from higher to lower concentration
