Gas diffusion in air takes time because gas particles move randomly and collide with each other and with the molecules of the surrounding air. During these collisions, the gas particles transfer momentum and energy to each other, leading to a gradual mixing of the gases. This process can be influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, and concentration gradients.
It will take helium gas (He) less time to diffuse than sulfur dioxide gas (SO2) due to its lower molecular weight. Diffusion rate is inversely proportional to the square root of molecular weight, so helium will diffuse faster than sulfur dioxide. Therefore, helium will likely diffuse from the container in less than 20 seconds.
Chlorine gas will diffuse faster than bromine gas because it has a lower molecular weight and therefore moves more quickly through a medium. The rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas, so lighter gases diffuse faster.
If gas is not in a container, it will expand to fill the space available to it. The gas particles will spread out in all directions until they encounter a barrier or become so diffuse that they merge with the surrounding air.
Hydrogen gas is the lightest element, which means it has the smallest molecular size and mass. This leads to it having higher average velocity at a given temperature compared to other gases, allowing it to diffuse more rapidly. Additionally, hydrogen gas molecules have weaker intermolecular forces, which further promotes faster diffusion.
Nitrogen gas will diffuse the fastest because gases diffuse more rapidly than liquids or solids due to their higher molecular speeds and lack of intermolecular forces that impede diffusion. Honey and sugar are viscous liquids and will diffuse more slowly due to their higher molecular weight and stronger intermolecular forces.

Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is heavier than oxygen gas (O2) due to its higher molar mass, so it will diffuse slower than oxygen gas. The exact time it would take for sulfur dioxide to diffuse from the container would depend on specific conditions and factors, but generally, it would take longer than 12.5 seconds.

Gases will naturally diffuse away, however more will diffuse back. Compression will decrease the amount of gas trapped at any one time.
Yes, gases can diffuse into other gases. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, regardless of the state of matter.
That is because our brain separate the smells.
Diffusion would happen quicker in gas because the particles in gas move at a higher rate than in liquid. Particles in liquid are also more uniform than that of gas deeming it to take a longer time to dissolve.
Nitrogen gas because it has the smallest molecular mass.............
Yes, hydrogen gas is less dense than air, so it tends to rise when released into the atmosphere.
