Use this worksheet to deepen understanding of diffusion and chemical reactions and how these processes are represented 

Developing understanding is a series of resources that encourage learners to connect their thinking at the macroscopic, sub-microscopic and symbolic levels. In this diffusion and chemical reactions worksheet, learners are encouraged to think about the diffusion of reactants in the gas state and in solution and the formation of a product where they meet. Icons in the margin indicate which level of understanding each question is developing to help prompt learners in their thinking. As a result, learners should develop more secure mental models to support their understanding of this topic.
