The Greater the Concentration Gradient,the Faster the Diffusion Rate

Question

The greater the concentration gradient,the faster the diffusion rate.

Accepted Answer

Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. The greater the difference in concentration between the two areas, the faster particles will diffuse. This is because there is a larger driving force for the particles to move towards an area with less of their own kind, and less competition from other particles.
