N2(g) diffuses faster than Ar(g). C. The ratio of diffusion rate Ar(g) to N2(g) is 1.19. D. Graham's law states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight. E. In a tube, they meet a point closer to the Ar(g) end.

88 Liquid oxygen for use as a rocket fuel can be produced by cooling dry air to 183°C, where the O2 condenses. How many liters of dry air at 25°C and 750 torr would need to be processed to produce 150 L of liquid O2 at 183°C? (The mole fraction of oxygen in dry air is 0.21, and the density of liquid oxygen is 1.14g/mL.)
Nitrogen gas can be obtained by decomposing ammonium nitrate at high temperatures. The nitrogen gas is collected over water in a 500-mL (three significant figures) flask at 19C.
