Diffusion is the physical process whereby atoms or molecules tend to move from an area of higher concentration or pressure to an area of lower concentration or pressure.

In the field of science, diffusion can be described as a process in which molecules move along the concentration gradient i,e from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.

The process of diffusion is extremely useful in many everyday living conditions. For example, it is due to diffusion that carbon dioxide and oxygen are exchanged between the lungs and the blood. Diffusion of water, salts, and water is an important process that occurs in the kidneys.

We can divide diffusion into two main types which are simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Simple diffusion occurs without any carrier molecule. On the other hand, facilitated diffusion occurs with aid of a carrier molecule.

In the gaseous state, chlorine exists as a diatomic molecule Cl2 (Molar mass = 70.9 g/mol). Calculate the number of moles of chl
kap26 [50]

Cl is stable as a diatomic molecule where the 2 Cl atoms are held together by a covalent bond

molar mass of the diatomic molecule is 70.9 g/mol

therefore 70.9 g of Cl₂ is - 1 mol

then 140 g of Cl₂ is - 1/70.9 x 140 = 1.97 mol

there are 1.97 mol of Cl₂ present

1. When the temperature of a rigid hollow sphere containing 685 L of helium gas is
mote1985 [20]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

250.756 moles He

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

From the question we are given;

Volume, L = 685 L

Temperature, T = 621 K

Pressure, P = 189 × 10 kPa

We are required to calculate the number of moles of the gas,

Using the Ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT, where P is the pressure, V is the volume, T is the temperature, n is the number of moles, and R is the ideal gas constant.

We can replace the known variables and constant in the equation to get the unknown variable, n.

Using ideal gas constant as 8.3145 L.kPa/K/mol

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{(1890)(685)}{(8.3145)(621)}

n = 250.7557 moles

   n = 250.756 moles

The moles of helium contained in the sphere is 250.756 moles
