Which gas effuses the fastest bromine or chlorine or ammonia or Hydrogen?

Hydrogen would effuse the fastest because it has the lowest molar mass among the gases mentioned. Effusion rate is inversely proportional to the square root of molar mass, so lighter gases effuse faster.


How is the effusion rate of gas related to its molar mass?

A process related to diffusion is effusion, the process by which a gas escapes from a container into a vacuum through a small hole. The rate of effusion is also related to root mean square velocity-heavier molecules effuse more slowly than lighter ones. The rate of effusion-the amount of gas that effused in a given time- is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas.


What gases will effuse the most rapidly chlorine hydrogen ammonia or bromine?

Assuming they are at the same temperature, ammonia will effuse most rapidly due to its lower molar mass compared to the other three gases. Effusion rate is inversely proportional to the square root of molar mass.


Why is it important that argon is heavier than air?

Argon being heavier than air is important because it allows it to displace and push away lighter gases, preventing them from mixing with the argon. This property makes argon useful for applications like shielding gases in welding and as a protective atmosphere in certain industrial processes.


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.

What is the relationship between the rate of effusion of a gas and its molecular weight, according to the statement that "the rate of effusion of a gas is proportional to" something?

According to Graham's law of effusion, the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight. This means that lighter gases will effuse faster than heavier gases.


When making a vortex using air do you want gases that are lighter or heavier than air?

Well, when I made a vortex using air, I used gases that are lighter.


Why is water heavier than the two gasses that compose it?

fluids are heavier than gases. When hydrogen its by itself is lighter than water as so the oxygen is also lighter. Once combined they form a fluid thus the combination of two gases produced a fluid which will turn heavier.


What is Graham's law of effusion?

Graham's law of effusion states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass. In other words, lighter gases effuse or diffuse at a faster rate than heavier gases under the same conditions.


Which gas effuses the fastest bromine or chlorine or ammonia or Hydrogen?

Hydrogen would effuse the fastest because it has the lowest molar mass among the gases mentioned. Effusion rate is inversely proportional to the square root of molar mass, so lighter gases effuse faster.


What determines if gases or vapors are lighter or heavier than air?

The molecular weight of the gas or vapor plays a key role in determining whether it is lighter or heavier than air. Gases or vapors with lower molecular weights are typically lighter than air and will rise, while those with higher molecular weights are heavier and tend to sink. Temperature and pressure can also impact the behavior of gases and vapors relative to air.


If ice became a gas would it be heavier than a solid?

No, all gases are lighter than solids


Which object forms by the contraction of a large sphere of gases causing the nuclear fusion of lighter elements into heavier elements?

A star forms by the contraction of a large sphere of gases. This contraction causes the nuclear fusion of lighter elements into heavier elements, releasing energy in the process.

Can heavier gas move upwards?

Yes heavier gas can move upwards or downwards at the same time as coolgas is moving in the opposite direction. For example in a fringe. Why do you think theyy put the fruit and vegetable conatiners at the bottom of the fringe? Because hot air rises and cold air sinks. Hope this helps!!


What is heterosphere mean?

The atmosphere above 80km (50 mi) and the homosphere where gases are stratified, with concentrations of the heavier gases decreasing more rapidly with altitude than concentrations of the lighter gases


Why lighter gases diffuse more rapidly than havier gases?

The idea is that they tend to be made up of lighter molecules; on average, these move faster (for a given temperature) than heavier (actually, more massive) molecules.
