Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The gas which travels faster after releasing from long tube is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Rate of effusion is inversely proportional to square root of mass of the gas and directly proportional to square root of temperature.
Answer to Problem 10STP
Sulphur dioxide will travel farther after 5 seconds.
Explanation of Solution
Mass of sulphur dioxide =
=
Mass of xenon =
As sulphur dioxide has less mass so it will effuse faster and reach farther after 5 seconds.
Thus, the gas with less mass is released from the hole faster.
