This means that in diffusion, particles move from areas with a high concentration to areas with a low concentration, Im this example, there was a lot of substance A (high concentration) on the left and none on the right. After diffusion, when A. {and B have evenly mixed, there is less A on the left as some has moved from the left where there wes a high concentretion to the right where there was a low concentration. © www.CHEMSHEETS.co.uk 19-Feb-14 Chemsheets KS3 047
