Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following gases will have the highest rate of diffusion at the same temperature?
  • Step 1: Understand that diffusion is the process where gas molecules spread out from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
  • Step 2: Learn about Graham's law, which states that lighter gases diffuse faster than heavier gases.
  • Step 3: Identify the molar masses of the gases in the question. The gas with the lowest molar mass will diffuse the fastest.
  • Step 4: Compare the molar masses of the gases given in the options. Find the one with the lowest value.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the gas with the lowest molar mass will have the highest rate of diffusion at the same temperature.
