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

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which gas will diffuse faster between ammonia (NH₃) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), we can 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. **Identify the Molar Masses**: - Calculate the molar mass of ammonia (NH₃): - Nitrogen (N) = 14 g/mol - Hydrogen (H) = 1 g/mol (3 H atoms) ...
