| diffuse |
If an area contains a high concentration of molecules, then purely on statistical grounds, they will spread out, much as children in a playground fill the whole ground rather than remain at one end of it. Diffusion causes molecules in regions of high concentration to spread into regions of low concentration. Such spread is called diffusion and the molecules are said to diffuse.
