  1. diffusion
    diffuse. Compare with effusion. The mixing of two substances caused by random molecular motions. Gases diffuse very quickly; liquids diffuse much more slowly, and solids diffuse at very slow (but often measurable) rates. Molecular collisions make diffusion slower in liquids and solids.

  2. diffusion
    Diffusion is the spontaneous mixing of one substance with another when in contact or separated by a permeable membrane.
