One mole of nitrogen gas at `0.8atm` takes `38s` to diffuse through a pinhole, while `1 mol` of an unknown fluoride of xenon at `1.6 atm` takes `57 s` to diffuse through the same hole. Calculate the molecular formation of the compound.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will use Graham's law of effusion, which states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass. The formula can be expressed as: \[ \frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{P_1}{P_2} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{M_2}}{\sqrt{M_1}} \] Where: - \( R_1 \) and \( R_2 \) are the rates of diffusion of gas 1 and gas 2, respectively. ...
