the passive movement of molecules CORRECT ANS-diffusion
what type of thermal movements is diffusion driven by? CORRECT ANS-Brownian
characteristics of individual molecules? CORRECT ANS--random, unpredictable motion
-not directed to low concentration
-never stops
characteristics of the net movement of all molecules? CORRECT ANS--is predictable
-directed from high to low concentration
-stops when it reaches equilibrium
how does the diffusion time change with the distance traveled? CORRECT ANS-diffusion
time increases with the square of the distance
[EXAMPLE] 2x distance equals.... CORRECT ANS-4 fold time
