Bubble Suspension - Soap bubbles float on a cushion of carbon dioxide
gas

"The gas gradually diffuses into the bubble, a process called osmosis."

Doesn't the word "osmosis" specifically refer to the special diffusion
of water? Isn't the general term for substances moving from an area of
high concentration to an area of lower concentration just "diffusion"?

Thanks
