The ratio of rate of diffusion of SO ₂(M=64) and oxygen (M=32) is
Options
- A1: 1
- B2: 1
- C1: 2
- D1: 1.414
Correct answer
D. 1: 1.414
Step-by-step solution
Molecular weight of SO ₂ (M₁ )=64 Molecular weight of O ₂ ( M ₂ )=32 According to Graham's law of diffusion aligned r₁ r₂ & = M₂ M₁ r₁ r₂ & = 32 64 & = 1 2 = 1 2 & = 1 1.414 r₁: r₂ & =1: 1.414 aligned
