Question
There is 2.878 x 10-4 mol of an unidentified gaseous substance effuses through a tiny hole in 98.9 s. Under identical conditions, 1.740 x 10-4 mol of argon gas takes 61.5 s to effuse.
What is the molar mass of the unidentified substance (in g/mol)?
What is the molecular formula of the substance?
Under identical conditions, how many moles of ethene (C2H4) gas would effuse in 91.0 s?

- An effusion container is filled with 2 L of an unknown gas. It takes 400 s for the gas to effuse into a vacuum. From the same container under the same conditions--same temperature and initial pressure, it takes 161 s for 2.00 L of O2 gas to effuse. Calculate the molar mass (in grams/mol) of the unknown gas.arrow_forwardWhen 0.1 mol of HCl gas is placed in a 10 liter box at 25 degree C, the pressure is about the same as that observed when 0.1 mol of NH3 is placed in an identical box at the same temperature. However, when 0.05 mol of HCl and 0.05 mol of NH3 are mixed in a 10 Liter box at 25 degree C, a noticeable lower pressure is observed. Explain this behavior.arrow_forwardSome N₂ gas is mixed with some O₂ gas, and the sketch below shows a representative sample of the mixture.

- A gas of unknown molecular mass was allowed to effuse through a small opening under constant pressure conditions. It required 72 s for 1.0 L of the gas to effuse. Under identical experimental conditions it required 27 s for 1.0 L of 02 gas to effuse. Calculate the molar mass of the unknown gas. (Remember that the faster the rate of effusion, the shorter the time required for effusion of 1.0 L; that is, rate and time are inversely proportional.) 367.1175859 X g/molarrow_forwardMI < CO C. Under identical conditions, separate samples of O2 and an unknown gas were allowed to effuse through identical membranes simultaneously. After a certain amount of time, it was found that 5.75 mL of O2 had passed through the membrane, but only 3.86 mL of of the unknown gas had passed through.
