    Identify the pair of gases that have equal rates of diffusion

    A)  CO, NO      

    B)  Np.CO

    C) \[{{N}_{2}}O,C{{O}_{2}}\]     

    D) \[~C{{O}_{2}},N{{O}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Rate of diffusion depends upon the molecular masses of gases. Therefore, the gases which have equal molecular mass, have equal rates of diffusion. \[\frac{{{r}_{1}}}{{{r}_{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{{{M}_{2}}}{{{M}_{1}}}}\] Molecular mass of\[{{N}_{2}}O=28+16=44\] Molecular mass of\[C{{O}_{2}}=12+32=44\] \[\therefore \] \[\frac{{{r}_{{{N}_{2}}O}}}{{{r}_{C{{O}_{2}}}}}=1\] \[\therefore \] \[{{r}_{{{N}_{2}}O}}={{r}_{C{{O}_{2}}}}\]
