Rate an answer:
8A container having a pin-hole contains equal masses of SO2 and CH4.
We have to find the ratio of no of moles of SO2 and CH4 effused out initially.
According to Graham's law of diffusion/effusion, "It states that under specific temperature and pressure, the rate of diffusion or effusion is inversely proportional to the square root of their density."
i.e., r ∝ 1/√d
∵ d = PM/RT and r = no of moles effused or diffused/time taken
∴ n/t ∝ 1/√M [P , R and T are constant ]
⇒ n₁/n₂ = √M₂/√M₁
Here, M₁ = molar mass of SO2 = 64 g/mol
M₂ = molar mass of CH4 = 16 g/mol
Now, n₁/n₂ = √(16)/√(64) = 1/2
Therefore the ratio of no of moles of SO2 and CH4 effused out initially is 1 : 2.Also read similar questions : a gaseous mixture contain equal mass of O2 and SO2 . the mole fraction of SO2 in the mixture is??
