Question 12

Which of the following best describes effusion?

Accepted Answer

The process by which gas molecules escape through a small hole into a vacuum.

Question 13

According to Graham’s law, how does the rate of effusion of hydrogen gas ($$\mathrm{H_2$}) $$compare to that of oxygen gas ($$\mathrm{O_2$}) at $$the same temperature?

Accepted Answer

Hydrogen effuses about four times faster than oxygen.

Question 14

Question 19

Which of the following best describes why the pressure inside a sealed container increases when the temperature is raised?
