The molar mass of the gas which diffuses 0.25 times as fast as helium is 64.The steps to be taken are in line with the calculation techniques of the mathematical representation of Graham's law of diffusion.

According to Graham's law of diffusion;

At constant temperature and pressure, the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass.

$\frac{r1}{r2} = \sqrt{ \frac{m2}{m1} }$

The molar mass of helium, m2= 4.

Therefore, r1/r2 = 1/4 since the gas diffuses 0.25 times as fast as helium.

Therefore;

(0.25)² = 4/m10.0625 = 4/m1m1 = 4/0.0625m1 = 64.

Therefore, the molar mass of the gas is 64.

The steps to be taken are in line with the calculation techniques of the mathematical representation of Graham's law of diffusion.

Answer from: maribelsalgado3

64.0 g/mol.

Explanation:

Thomas Graham found that, at a constant temperature and pressure the rates of effusion of various gases are inversely proportional to the square root of their masses.

∨ ∝ 1/√M.

where, ∨ is the rate of diffusion of the gas.

M is the molar mass of the gas.

∨₁/∨₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

∨₁ is the rate of effusion of the unknown gas.

∨₂ is the rate of effusion of He gas.

M₁ is the molar mass of the unknown gas.

M₂ is the molar mass of He gas (M₂ = 4.0 g/mol).

∨₁/∨₂ = 0.25.

∵ ∨₁/∨₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

∴ (0.25) =√(4.0 g/mol)/(M₁)

By squaring the both sides:

∴ (0.25)² = (4.0 g/mol)/(M₁)

∴ M₁ = (4.0 g/mol)/(0.25)² = 64.0 g/mol.

answer: e. sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

$hcl\rightarrow h^++cl^-$

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give $oh^-$ ions or accepts $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.

$naoh\rightarrow na^++oh^-$

$nh_3+h^+\rightarrow nh_4^+$

Answer from: Quest

a electronegativity decreases beacuse the size of nucleus is bigger.
