Organize the following gases in order of their rates of diffusion, from slowest to fastest ; oxygen, ammonia, hydrogen, carbon dioxide
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
Chlorine
Neon is the fastest. Chlorine is the slowest. We must assume that all these gases are at the same temperature.
The order from slowest to fastest :
Carbon dioxide , oxygen,Ammonia, Hydrogen.
As the carbon dioxide has greatest molecular mass then it is diffuse at low . Further oxygen and then Ammonia and last is Hydrogen has smallest molecular mass then it is diffuse at fastest rate .
Explanation;
Diffusion of gas :
It is defined as the diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of given gas .
The molar mass
- carbon dioxide= 44 gm/mol
- Hydrogen = 2 gm/mol
- oxygen = 32 gm/mol
- Ammonia=17 gm/mol
The greater the relative molecular mass of a molecule ,the slowest it diffuse .Diffusion is depend on the molecular mass , temperature and concentration gradient .
