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.

Do lighter gas particles diffuse less rapidly than heavier gas particles?

No, heavier gas particles diffuse slower than lighter gas particles


Would you expect the particles in chlorine gas to diffuse faster or slower than the particles in argon gas?

The rate of diffusion of a gas depends on the weight of the gas molecules. The heavier the molecules, the slower they move - the lighter the molecules, the faster they move. Nitrogen molecules weigh about 28 units. Chlorine molecules weigh 71 units. So we would expect nitrogen to diffuse more quickly than chlorine.


Do particles in a liquid move faster or slower when the temperature increases?

faster


Do particles vibrate slower when heated?

No, they vibrate faster.


Does increased energy increased that particles are moving faster r slower?

Increased energy makes particles move faster.


Do the particles of a substance move faster or slower as the substance?

With the help of heating the movement is faster.


Do gas particles move slower than solid particles?

No. Gas particles move much faster than solid particles.


When ice cream melts do the particles in the ice cream move slower?

When ice cream melts, the particles actually move faster, not slower, then when it is unmelted.


What is the movement of the particles of liquid?

gliding movement. The particles move faster then that of a solid, but slower than that of a gas.


When heat is removed from a substance the particles start moving faster?

No, heat makes the particles move faster. If you remove the heat the particles will start moving slower as it cools down.


When faster moving and slower moving particles collide which particles gain energy?

It depends upon the mass of the particles also. Assuming equal mass, then the slower moving particle gains some energy, and the faster moving particle loses energy. However, if the slower moving particle had greater mass, it could transfer energy to the faster moving particle.
