Which will diffuse faster, ammonia of `CO_(2)` ? What are their relative rates of diffusion?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`M_(NH_(3))=17,M_(CO_(2))=44.` As rate `propsqrt(1//M)` hence `NH_(3)` will diffuse faster
`therefore(r_(NH_(3)))/(r_(CO_(2)))=sqrt((M_(CO_(2)))/(M_(NH_(3))))=sqrt((44)/(17))=1.609`
