Carbon dioxide and another gas 'X' have ...

Carbon dioxide and another gas 'X' have their rates of diffusion as 0.299 cc `s^-1` and 0.271 cc `s^-1` respectively. Find the vapour density of the gas 'X' if the vapour density of carbon dioxide is 22.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`("Rate of dif fusion of" CO_2)/("Rate of dif fusion of gas" 'X')=sqrt((V_dof gas 'X')/(V_dof CO_2))`
`=(0.290 c c s^-1)/(0.271 c c s^-1)=sqrt((V_d of gas 'X')/22)`
`V_d of gas 'X'=(0.290 times0.290 times22)/(0.271 times0.271)=25.19`
