The purple color of potassium permanganate gradually spreads throughout the water in the jar by the process of diffusion.

  • Diffusion is the process of movement of a substance from the region of higher concentration to the regions of lower concentration. Diffusion occurs in liquids as well as gases.
  • Potassium permanganate is a purple color compound, when it is added in a jar of water it spreads throughout the water by the virtue of diffusion.
  • The concentration of potassium permanganate is higher at one point and the other regions in the jar have its nil or low concentrations initially, this leads to the set up of a concentration gradient.
  • As time passes diffusion occurs and the particles of potassium permanganate keep on migrating to the regions of low concentration until the concentration is uniform throughout the jar. Ultimately, it spread throughout the jar making the water purple.

Answer:

Molecules can be made of one type of element pr a mixture of element.

Molecule is two or more atoms bonded together.

Compound act like a different substance (because have different properties from its constituent elements).

Explanation:

A molecule is the combination of one or more atoms. These atoms may be from different elements are of the same elements. All the compounds are molecule but not all the molecules are compound. For example,

H₂O is a water molecule and also a compound. H₂ is just a molecule not a compound because both atoms are from same element.

The compound have different properties from its constituent elements. e.g water is compound made up of hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen is flammable gas and oxygen support combustion, while water doesn't have these properties. However in mixture elements retain their own properties that's why mixture is different from the compound.
