Imagine that you have been assigned 5 substances for which you will observe the rate of diffusion. The only information that you have about your materials is the molecular weight of each substance, listed below:

Substance #1: 212 mg

Substance #2: 1918 mg

Substance #3: 50 mg

Substance #4: 4 mg

Substance #5: 700 mg

If the substances are allowed to diffuse for one hour, what can you predict about the rate of diffusion?

The answer to the question is

That the lighter substances will diffuse more than the substances with larger molecular masses

That is Substance #4: 4 mg which has the least molecular mass will diffuse the most

Explanation:

Graham's law of diffusion of a gas states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular mass

That is

$\frac{Rate 1}{Rate 2} =\sqrt{\frac{Mass 2}{Mass 1} }$

i.e. r ∝ √(Molar Mass) and r × √(Molar Mass) = constant

Where r = Diffusion rate

Considering the listed gases we have

(Rate of subsatane 1)/ (Rte of substance 2) =

$\frac{Rate of substance 1}{Rate of substance 2} =\sqrt{\frac{Molar Mass 2}{Molar Mass 1} }$ =

$\frac{Rate 1}{Rate 2} =\sqrt{\frac{1918 mg}{212 mg} } = 3.0$ ≅ 3.0

Hence Substance 1 diffuses faster than substance 2

The same can be said of the rest where the rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the molar mass

And so

R1:R2 = 3.00

R1:R3 = 0.48

R1:R4 = 0.14

R1:R5 = 1.82

Therefore the rate of diffusion of the gases in incresing order is

R2 → R5 → R1 → R3 → R4

Which is the same order as the decreasing order of their molar mass

Substance #2: 1918 mg , Substance #5: 700 mg, Substance #1: 212 mg, Substance #3: 50 mg , Substance #4: 4 mg

It d from what i know

Answer from: Quest

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and conduct electricity easily while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.

Since the gas in your graduated cylinder is a mixture of butane and water vapor, you must determine the partial pressure of the butane, pbutane, alone. to do this, consult a reference and record the partial pressure of the water vapor, pwater, at the temperature you recorded. use the following formula to compute the partial pressure of the butane. pbutane = atmosphere - pwater use the following combined gas law formula and compute the volume that the butane sample will occupy at stp. (hint: convert both temperatures to kelvin.) pbutane x voriginal = pstandard x vfinal troom tstandard use the following ratio and proportion formula to determine the mass of butane needed to occupy a volume of 22.4 l at stp. grams of butane you used “x” grams of butane ml of butane corrected to stp = 22,400 ml compute the theoretical molar mass of butane based on its formula and the atomic masses on the periodic table. compare your experimental results from #3 to the theoretical value of #4, computing a percent error of your findings using this formula: % error = measured value - accepted value x 100 accepted value use the following ratio and proportion formula to determine the mass of butane needed to occupy a volume of 22.4 l at stp. need asap
