Of the following gases, will have the greatest rate of effusion at a given temperature. a) nh3b) ch4c) ard) hbre) hcl

CH₄

Explanation:

According to Graham's law, the rate of effusion of a gas (r) is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass (M).

Let's consider the following gases and their molar masses.

A) NH₃    17.03 g/mol

B) CH₄    16.04 g/mol

C) Ar       39.95 g/mol

D) HBr    80.91 g/mol

E) HCl     36.46 g/mol

Of these gases, CH₄ will have the greatest rate of effusion at a given temperature because it has the lowest molar mass.

d. temperate deciduous forest

in 1783 cavendish was working with his hydrogen gas and found that when he burned it and condensed the vapor it was water. this was very significant since it disproved the greek theory of elements completely since water was not a simple substance but the product of two gases. it was lavoisier who hearing of the experiment gave cavendish's gas the name hydrogen ("water-producer") and added that hydrogen burned by combining with oxygen and that water was a hydrogen-oxygen combination.
