Solution

  1. The process by which particles in a substance move through another substance is known as diffusion.
  2. The particles in a substance gain kinetic energy when the temperature of the substance is raised, therefore moving faster which causes the diffusion rate to be increased
  3. Thus, as the temperature of a substance increases, so does the rate of diffusion.
