Diffusion And Diffusion Experiment

First we are going to define what exactly is diffusion and how it happens. Diffusion happens when substances interact with each other and mix this is called diffusion and when molecules move from a high concentration area to a less concentrated area that leads to diffusion aswell. Next we are going to talk about which substances react quicker, for example gasses tend to react quicker than liquids do and solids tend not to react almost at all. However when it does react it will do so in a very slow level. To make this happen we have to consider some factors such as temperature because kinetic energy tends to increase with increased temperature with that said the higher the temperature the higher the rate of diffusion. we also have to stir the …show more content…

Sixth: we will start to observe all breakers that will begin with diffusion.
Seventh : we will use our stop watch to record how long it took for the copper sulphate to dissolute in all of the three beakers.
In conclusion to the second experiment we saw that each beaker took from 7 to 18 minutes depending on the heat of the water. we saw that sample number 1 took 18 minuets with heat of 10 degree C. and sample number 2 took 15 with heat of 25 degree C. and sample number 3 took 7 minutes with heat of 70 degree C. Now that we noted that we can say that the diffusion of copper sulphate varies depending not the temperature with beaker number 3 started the diffuse in 7 min and the beaker number 1 took 18. so the hotter the water the faster the diffuse of the copper sulphate.
Experiment 3:
In experiment number 3 we will investigate if the size of the particles will effect the rate of diffusion when it comes to solids such as copper sulphate to react with liquids. We will need 3 100 mL graduated cylinders and different sizes of ( CuSO4) and a stop watch to record our time.
First: We will add take our 3 beakers and we will add 50 mL of liquid water into each
