Best Answer

Effusion goes as the inverse square root of the molecular weight (Graham's Law). The rest is simple algebra.

This gas is hydrogen, a gas with small molecules.


Can liquids effuse?

Yes, liquids can effuse because i did a project on liquid and my friend did something and it effused


Does oxygen effuse 1.07 times faster than nitrogen?

No, nitrogen effuse faster than oxygen.


Does nitrogen or iodine effuse faster?

Nitrogen will effuse faster, since it has a smaller molar mass than iodine. Hope this helped!


Under the same conditions of temperature and pressure how many times faster will hydrogen effuse compared to carbon dioxide?

nearly 3 times faster i think well that's what it said in the chem book


Why gases have higher chance of leaking through holes?

Gas leaking through a small hole in its container is called effusion. The rate of effusion depends upon molar mass. The smaller the molar mass, the more quickly a gas will effuse out. Given these gases: He, Ar, CO2, helium will effuse out the fastest because its molar mass is only 4 (compared to 40 for argon and 44 for carbon dioxide.)


Does a lighter gas effuse slower than heavier gases?

yup


Which gas will diffuse faster methane or carbon dioxide?

Helium diffuses twice faster as Methane does.


What type of gas molecules diffuse and effuse faster?

As stated by Graham's law this depends on the mass of the gas molecule, there is an inverse relationship the bigger the mass the slower the effusion rate so molecules with a lower molar mass effuse faster.


How do you use Effusive in a sentence?

This means to spread out or flow, or to show great enthusiasm. Here are some sentences.His parents effuse over his awards.Can you effuse the liquids?The gases effuse into another container.


Which is heavier NH3 or H2S Which one can be smell first?

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S, 34g/mol) has a higher molar mass than ammonia (NH3, 17g/mol), so if equal volumes of both gases were released in the same physical area, you would be most likely to smell the ammonia first because it's lighter and would be carried along through the air more quickly by diffusion. Also, if both gases were in a balloon with a tiny hole in it, the ammonia would effuse out more quickly than the hydrogen sulfide, again, because of the lower molar mass.


Which is faster to effuse HCl or HBr?

HCl effuses faster due to less molecular mass (36.5) as compare to HBr (81).
