Consider a 1.0-LL sample of helium gas and a 1.0-LL sample of argon gas, both at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Which gas sample would have the fastest rate of effusion?   It is impossible to determine which would have the fastest rate of effusion. The sample of argon would have the fastest rate of effusion. The sample of helium would have the fastest rate of effusion. Both samples would have the same rate of effusion.
