AP Chemistry › Effusion
Which of the following gases will have the highest rate of effusion?
A 20cm tube holds two cotton balls, one in each end. The left cotton ball is saturated with undiluted HCl. The right cotton ball is soaked in an undiluted mystery compound. Vapors from the two cotton balls are allowed to mix within the tube.
Let us assume that the two compounds form a precipitate in the tube 6cm to the left of the right cotton ball. What is the molar mass of the mystery compound?
A mixture of neon gas and argon gas is present in a container (container A). There are equal amounts of both gases in the container. A small pinhole is created in the container, allowing the gases to effuse into an empty container (container B). The effusion time is very brief, and the pinhole is eventually plugged, resulting in a mixture of both gases in both containers.
Which of the following statements is true after the pinhole is plugged?
Molecule A has twice the mass of molecule B. A sample of each molecule is released into separate, identical containers. Which compound will have a higher rate of diffusion?
A glass box holds equal amounts of hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and bromine. The gases are allowed to exit the container through a tiny hole. Which gas will exit the hole the fastest?
A mixture of neon gas and argon gas is present in a container (container A). There are equal amounts of both gases in the container. A small pinhole is created in the container, allowing the gases to effuse into an empty container (container B). The effusion time is very brief, and the pinhole is eventually plugged, resulting in a mixture of both gases in both containers.
Suppose that after the pinhole is plugged, there are 100 argon atoms in container B. Approximately how many neon atoms would you predict to be in container B?
How much faster/slower the rate of effusion for oxygen gas compared to hydrogen gas?
Gas A has a molar mass that is times greater than that of Gas B. Which of these gases would be expected to effuse through a small hole faster? By how much?
Which of the following gases has the highest rate of effusion?
