Answer:

Classical Brownian motion

Step-by-step explanation:

In liquids, particles are quite close together and move with random motion throughout the container. Particles move rapidly in all directions but collide with each other more frequently than in gases due to shorter distances between particles.

The term “classical Brownian motion” describes the random movement of microscopic particles suspended in a liquid or gas.
