All substances are made up of particles. The particles are attracted to each other. Some particles are attracted strongly to each other and others weakly.
The particles move around. They are described as having kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of the particles increases with temperature.

What is diffusion?
Diffusion is the movement of particles that allows them to spread out and mix with other particles. For example, the smell of aftershave or perfume diffuses and is detected by people on the other side of the room. Use the particle model to explain these facts about diffusion: Diffusion occurs in liquids and gases but hardly at all in solids. Diffusion happens more quickly for gases than for liquids. Diffusion happens more quickly at warm temperatures than at cooler temperatures.

Diffusion experiment
In this experiment, two gases diffuse towards each other in a sealed glass tube.
When the gases meet, they react to form a ring of ammonium chloride which is closer to one end of the tube than the other.
