Which would diffuse faster ammonia or hydrochloric acid?
Ammonia would. The lower the molecular mass the faster it diffuses,. Ammonia (NH3) has a mass of about 17 AMU while hydrochloric acid about 36.5
How can solids diffuse?
I'm not quite sure liquids diffuse. but gases do an example would be if something was burning in your house you would be able to smell it up the street. The particles move from a high to a low concentration. In other words move from a place where there are lots of the particles to a place where there isn't many of the particles to almost even it out. The particles have lots of space between them to move around. Bumping into each other they create kinetic energy. This means they are able to move around.
Why do gases diffuse faster than liquids?
In liquid, there is less space to move so collisions are more frequent between the molecules causing a slower diffusion rate. The opposite happens in gases. There is more space in gases. As a result, there are less collisions between the molecules causing a faster diffusion rate. Other factors that may have an affect on diffusion rates are temperature, mass of the molecule, volume/surface area, and medium used.
What is the ratio of the rates of diffusion of hydrogen gas to ethane gas C2H6?
According to Graham's Law of Effusion, the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely related to the square root of the molar mass. Thus, smaller (lighter) gases diffuse faster than larger, heavier gases. Molar mass of H2 = 2 and molar mass of C2H6 = 30. Sqrt 2 = 1.41 and sqrt 30 = 5.48, so the ratio is 5.48/1.41 = 3.88 or H2 will diffuse almost 4x faster (3.88x) than ethane. The ratio of H2/C2H6 would be the inverse, or 1.41/5.48 = 0.257, meaning that the rate of diffusion of ethane is about 26% that of hydrogen.
Would chloromethane or iodomethane react faster?
Iodide is a better leaving group than chloride so iodomethane would react faster.
Which would diffuse faster potassium permanganate at 0 degree celsius or at 100 degree celsius?
100 degree would probably diffuse faster than at 0 degree because 100 degree has a higher concentration
Would a substance of high molecular weight diffuse faster than a substance of lower molecular weight?
yes, a substance of high molecular weight will diffuse faster than a substance of lower molecular weight since the molecules will absorb the liquid and easily soak the other molecules,all round,hence diffuse faster
Which one of the gases in air would diffuse faster?
Nitrogen gas because it has the smallest molecular mass.............
What would diffuse?
A fluid would diffuse .
Would you expect the particles in cl2 to diffuse faster or slower than the particles in argon gas?
Cl2 has a molar mass of about 71 g/moleArgon has molar mass of about 40 g/mole Thus, Argon will diffuse faster than Cl2 gas, or put another way, Cl2 will diffuse slower than argon.
Which would diffuse faster ammonia or hydrochloric acid?
Ammonia would. The lower the molecular mass the faster it diffuses,. Ammonia (NH3) has a mass of about 17 AMU while hydrochloric acid about 36.5
Why would gases diffuse faster on a warm day than on a cold day?
The molecules of a gas move faster at higher temperatures, which therefore speeds up diffusion.
Why would crystals diffuse faster in hot water than in cold water?
It depends how saturated the salt solution is. The more saturated with salt, the faster crystals will form.
Would you expect the particles in Cl2 gas to diffuse faster or slower than the particles in argon gas?
Cl2 has a molar mass of about 71 g/moleArgon has molar mass of about 40 g/mole Thus, Argon will diffuse faster than Cl2 gas, or put another way, Cl2 will diffuse slower than argon.
Which way would O2 and CO2 diffuse during internal respiration?
O2 would diffuse into the cells, and CO2 would diffuse into the systemic capillaries.
Which diffuse faster heavy particles or light particles?
In general lighter particles should diffuse faster than heavier particles, this could be extrapolated from the relationship to mass, volume, and energy. If we look at particles of all the same, ideal, substance, we would see that an object with less mass would be smaller but would also require less energy to move. That is, at the same temperature a particle of lower mass would move faster than a similar particle of heavier mass. We also see that smaller particles also maximize surface area/mass - this is also conducive to faster diffusion.
Breathing faster and deeper eliminates more carbon dioxide from the body than normal breathing under these circumstances what would happen?
more carbon dioxide will diffuse out of the blood
