Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The ratio of $\frac{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}$ should be calculated in the balloon on next day when 35% of ${\text{H}}_2$ leaked.

Concept Introduction:

The process which refers to the movement of gaseous molecules through a small hole with velocity u is known as effusion. Rate of effusion is defined as the rate at which the gaseous molecules effuse out.

Thus, the expression is given as:

Rate of effusion $\propto \sqrt{\frac{1}{M}}$
