  • Diffusion is the process of movement of molecules under a concentration gradient.

Image B:

  • The process by which a drop of ink spreads in a beaker of water is diffusion.
  • Diffusion refers to the process by which molecules intermingle as a result of their kinetic energy of random motion.

Image C:

  • The resins swell up in water due to osmosis.
  • This happens due to endosmosis in which the concentration of resins is more than the concentration of water.
