Chapter 6, Problem 6.62E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The balloon that would get flat after sometime is to be identified. An explanation for the corresponding answer is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Diffusion is a process in which particles move from higher concentration area to lower concentration area. The relation between rate of diffusion and effusion of gases with their molecular mass is given by Graham’s law of effusion. The Graham’s law of effusion is mathematically represented as,

$\frac{\text{effusion}\text{rate}A}{\text{effusion}\text{rate}B}=\sqrt{\frac{\text{Molecular}\text{mass}\text{of}B}{\text{Molecular}\text{mass}\text{of}A}}$
