From a certain apparatus, the diffusion rate of hydrogen has an average value of 28.7 cm^(3) s^(-1) . The diffusion of another gas under the same conditions is measured to have an average rate of 7.2 cm^(3) s^(-1) . Identify the gas. [Hint : Use Graham's law of diffusion: R_(1)//R_(2) = (M_(2) //M_(1) )^(1//2) , where R_(1), R_(2) , are diffusion rates of gases 1 and 2, and M_(1) and M_(2) their respective molecular masses. The law is a simple consequence of kinetic theory.]

Three vessels of equal capacity have gases at the same temperature and pressure. The first vessel contains neon (monatomic), the second contains chlorine (diatomic). and the third contains uranium hexafluoride (polyatomic). Do the vessels contain equal number of respective molecules ? Is the root mean square speed of molecules the same in the three cases? If not, in which case is v_("rms") the largest ?
