By definition, diffusion moves molecules from a higher concentrated solution to a lesser concentrated solution across a permeable membrane. If there is a greater amount of molecules that need to move across a membrane, more molecules will hit each other and create kinetic energy, which in turn speeds up the reaction process. In the eggsperiment, the 10% salt solution required more molecules to move across the membrane, which produced a greater amount of kinetic energy that sped up the reaction process, as opposed to the 5% solution that had a lesser amount of kinetic energy and a slower reaction.

When the concentration gradient is larger, there is a greater number of molecules colliding, which results in a greater amount of kinetic energy. A greater kinetic energy results in an increased rate of reaction

For the ten percent and five percent salt solutions, each yielded a different loss of mass. There must be some factor that the concentration gradient plays in the rate of diffusion, otherwise the loss of mass would be the same for both solutions. Because the concentration gradient was different across all solutions (5%, 10%, and distilled), a different amount of particles collided for each. More particles collided in the 10% salt solution as opposed to the 5% salt solution, which explains the difference in the loss of mass. Due to this higher rate of particle collision in the 10% as opposed to the 5%, more kinetic energy was produced, allowing more particles passed through the membrane, affecting the rate of diffusion.

When molecules are in solution, they are moving and collide with other molecules. The rate of collision increases as more molecules are in the solution. When molecules collide, their bonds break aTherefore, because the 10% solution had more molecules NaCl because of its higher concentration, its molecules moved faster, explaining why it lost more mass than the 5% solution. Meanwhile, the 5% solution has fewer molecules of NaCl than the 10% solution, meaning they will be moving slower, ultimately leading to less mass lost.

The amount of salt for each solution varied, as did the change in mass showing that the percent of salt affected the diffusion process. Because both of the eggs with salt sat for 10 minutes, and the egg with more salt lost more mass, it shows that the amount of solute changed the rate of diffusion. The greater amount of concentration gradient causes the diffusion to happen at a faster pace to balance the amount of solution in both the water and the egg.

When more water molecules are moving, there is more kinetic energy, and the water moves faster as a result of the kinetic energy, resulting in a faster rate of diffusion.

10% salt = -1.39 gram
5% salt = -0.17 gram
over the same amount of time more water diffused in a larger concentration gradient (10% salt has a larger concentration gradient than the 5% salt)

The concentration gradient affects the rate of diffusion.

# data[].attributes.body
The concentration gradient does affect the rate of diffusion, as the steeper the concentration gradient, the faster the rate of diffusion.

# data[].attributes.body
When the concentration gradient was higher, more molecules are moving back and forth, which results in more collisions. Due to this increase in collisions, they produce more kinetic energy, and with the presence of more energy, diffusion happens more frequently and more easily.
