Question

A space capsule is filled with neon gas at 1.00 atm and 290 K. The gas effuses through a pin-hole into outer
(a) If the capsule were filled with ammonia at the same temperature and pressure, what would be the rate of
80% O, takes 234 sec to effuse out same volume What is molecular weight of the gas?
20.
space at such a rate that the pressure drops by 0.3 torr/sec
pressure drop
(b) If the capsule were filled with 30.0 mol% helium, 20.0 mol% oxygen & 50.0 mol% nitrogen at a total
pressure of 1.00 atm & a temp. of 290 K, what would be the corresponding rate of pressure drop. (with proper solution)​

Answer 1

For (a) 0.32 Torr/sec For (b) 0.29 Torr/sec
