Question

five examples of diffusion observed in daily life

Answer 1

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.
