Which of the following statements regarding diffusion is false? Group of answer choices Diffusion is a result of the thermal energy of atoms and molecules. Diffusion occurs even after equilibrium is reached and no net change is apparent. Diffusion requires no input of energy into the system. Diffusion occurs when particles spread from areas where they are less concentrated to areas where they are more concentrated.

The statement diffusion occurs when particles spread from areas where they are less concentrated to areas where they are more concentrated, is false.

Explanation:

When particles or atoms of a substance are able to move rapidly from one place to another then it is called diffusion.

During diffusion, particles tend to move apart from each other.

For example, spreading of dye molecules into water.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement diffusion occurs when particles spread from areas where they are less concentrated to areas where they are more concentrated, is false.

whats the meaning of /

1. the question asks the most appropriate, which seems to rule out "all of the above." your choice appears to be the correct one.

2. the protocol described is good for identifying correlation, but not cause and effect. for cause/effect, you need to devise a protocol that will assign the treatment (or not) to groups that have essentially the same "demographics" with respect to all the other variables. your choice regarding control group seems appropriate. random assignment of treatment (choice d) may be appropriate also. (i think you can argue that b and d are just different descriptions of the same method.)

3. d will randomize the birds, but may not guarantee there are 10 in each group. e will do both, so seems the better choice.

comment on question 2

based on the problem statement, it seems clear that confident, attentive drivers are more likely to use daytime running lights. so, the protocol might need to be devised in such a way that the lights would be turned on or off without the driver's knowledge. (an attentive driver will figure it out.) assigning a confident, attentive driver to a group required to drive without running lights might mess with his/her confidence and attentiveness. you don't want your experiment to do that. (nor do you want the experiment to subject a driver to greater risk of accident as a consequence of driving without running lights.) experiments involving human safety are always problematic.
