Question
A chemist notices that a gas (measured to have a molar mass of 18.02 g/mol) diffuses approximately 3.13 times as fast as a different unknown gas.
Calculate the molar mass of the different unknown gas.
Recall:
V (1/P) (at constant T and n)
VT (at constant P and n)
Van (at constant Tand P)
PV = nRT
