  • Understanding Molecular Motion: The Role of Diffusion
    The property that proves molecules are always moving is diffusion.

    Here's why:

    * Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

    * This movement happens because molecules are constantly in motion, bumping into each other and spreading out.

    * We see diffusion in everyday life: a drop of food coloring spreading in water, the scent of perfume filling a room, or the smell of freshly baked bread.

    While other properties like temperature and pressure are related to molecular movement, diffusion directly demonstrates the constant motion of molecules.
