The higher the pressure, the more easily a chemical diffuses. And seeing as pressure and temperature are directly related, the higher the temperature the more easily a chemical diffuses, and vice versa. This is caused by everything "wanting" to be equal, if there is a higher pressure, then it will diffuse to an area of lower pressure.
