In contrast, effusion is the escape of a gas from a container through a tiny opening into an evacuated space. The rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass (Graham’s law), a relationship that closely approximates the rate of diffusion. As a result, light gases tend to diffuse and effuse much more rapidly than heavier gases.

Diffusion refers to the phenomenon by which concentration and temperature gradients spontaneously disappear with time, and the properties of the system become spatially uniform. Brownian motion is also a spontaneous process observed in equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems.

Diffusion is a spontaneous process and is a result of the random thermal motions between two particles.

Notice that this is a direct relationship: the faster the rate of diffusion of the solute, the greater the extent of longitudinal diffusion. ϕ is known as the obstruction factor, and occurs in a packed chromatographic column.

Eventually, the concentration of "stuff" on either side of them will even out. A fish that lives in salt water will have somewhat salty water inside itself. Put it in freshwater, and the freshwater will, through osmosis, enter the fish, causing its cells to swell, and the fish will die. What will happen to a freshwater fish in the ocean?

The details of the rates of movement as they relate to molar mass are discussed in this section.

Because the shape of this transient signal depends on the physical and chemical kinetic processes occurring in the carrier stream during the time between injection and detection, we include flow injection analysis in this chapter.

Diffusion is the process whereby gaseous atoms and molecules are transferred from regions of relatively high concentration to regions of relatively low concentration. Effusion is a similar process with gaseous species passing from a container to vacuum through a small orifices. The rates of effusion of gases are inversely proportional to the square roots of their densities or to the square roots of their atoms/molecules’ masses.

We call the resulting plot of current versus applied potential a voltammogram, and it is the electrochemical equivalent of a spectrum in spectroscopy, providing quantitative and qualitative information about the species involved in the oxidation or reduction reaction.
