To solve the problem step by step, 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. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: We know that the rate of diffusion of methane (CH₄) is twice that of gas X. This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ \text{Rate of CH}_4 = 2 \times \text{Rate of gas X} ...
