Diffusion
• Particles in a liquid or gas spread out…• … from regions of high concentration…• … to regions of low concentration…• …until the particles are evenly spread out.

• The difference between the regions of high concentration and low concentration is called the concentration gradient
• The steeper the concentration gradient, the faster diffusion takes place
High concentration gradient
Fast rate of diffusion
Low concentration gradient
Slow rate of diffusion

• Diffusion occurs because the particles in gases and liquids are moving.

Dissolving substances in water
• The molecules in liquid water are constantly moving
• When water molecules bump into particles of a soluble substance, they stick to them
Free moving water molecules
Sugar molecules in sugar lump

• When the water molecules move away…
… they carry particles of the solute with them

• Adding a solute to water reduces the amount of free water molecules
Free water molecules

Partially-Permeable Membranes
• A partially-permeable membrane will allow certain molecules to pass through it, but not others.
• Generally, small particles can pass through…
Partially permeable membrane
…but large particles cannot

Partially-permeable membraneMore free water molecules
on this side of membrane
Water-solute particle is too large to pass through membrane
Free water molecules diffuse in this direction

Osmosis
• Osmosis is the diffusion of free water molecules…•… from a region of high concentration of free water molecules…• … to a region of low concentration of free water molecules…• …across a partially-permeable membrane…• …until they are evenly spread out.
