Two gases NH 3 and phosphine gas, PH 3 are effusing through a small pinhole at same temperature. 1.73 ×10-3 mol NH 3 gas takes time of 11.2 second for effusing. Time taken by PH 3 with same amount that is 1.73 ×10-3 mol is to be determined. Concept introduction: Rate of effusion of is a process of escaping of molecules from high pressure to lower pressure at particular rate. Itcan be calculated by dividing moles of gas by time of effusion. Given as- r a t e = ( n t ) Where n = moles of gas t = effusion time Rate of effusion is also inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of atom. Ratio of rate of effusion is given as- R a t e o f e f f u s i o n o f g a s A R a t e o f e f f u s i o n o f g a s B = ( M o l a r m a s s o f g a s B M o l a r m a s s o f g a s A ) 1 / 2

Solution Summary: The author explains that rate of effusion is a process of escaping molecules from high pressure to lower pressure at particular rate.
Two gases NH3 and phosphine gas, PH3 are effusing through a small pinhole at same temperature. 1.73 ×10-3 mol NH3 gas takes time of 11.2 second for effusing. Time taken by PH3 with same amount that is 1.73 ×10-3 mol is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Rate of effusion of is a process of escaping of molecules from high pressure to lower pressure at particular rate. Itcan be calculated by dividing moles of gas by time of effusion. Given as-
rate=(nt)
Where n = moles of gas
t = effusion time
Rate of effusion is also inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of atom. Ratio of rate of effusion is given as-
