Part B: Factors that Affect Diffusion Let's experiment with some of the factors that affect the rate of diffusion; that is, how quickly will molecules reach equilibrium. Click the Reset button. Add 50 blue molecules. Remove the divider and start the timer at the same time. Stop the timer when the number of blue molecules on the left side of the divider is the same as they are on the right (click "more data" to see the counter). 6. Record the time in the table below. Then complete the table by increasing the number of molecules as described in the table Number of Molecules on the Right Time to equilibrium 50 100 150 200 7. How did the number of particles affect the rate affect diffusion? Now put the number of blue particles at 100
