Expert Solution
Step 1
Diffusion is the movement of gas molecules through one or more other types of gas via random molecular motion.
Graham's law states that the rate of diffusion or of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight(molar mass)
That means as molar mass of gases increases rate of diffusion decreases.
