Gases exhibit a much faster rate of diffusion compared to solids and liquids. This is because gas particles have higher kinetic energy and move more freely, allowing them to spread out quickly and diffuse into other gases or mix with them.

Gases generally diffuse more rapidly than solids and liquids due to their higher molecular mobility and lower molecular weight. Gas molecules move freely and randomly in all directions, covering greater distances in a given time, whereas diffusion in solids and liquids is slower due to molecular interactions and restricted motion.
