Assume that in gas diffusion experiment you place NH3 and HCl at the ends of a tube that is 11 cm long an dplug both ends of the tube in order to prevent the gasses from escaping. If you find that the diffusion distances of NH3 and HCl are (8.31x10^0) and (11 - (8.31x10^0) ) mm respectively, what is the ratio of the diffusion speeds of the two gasses?
