According to Graham's Law of Diffusion,"the rates of diffusion of two gases are inversely proportional to the square root of their Molar masses or Densities at the same pressure and temperature".

                                     r₁ / r₂  =  \sqrt{M2 / M1}
Where,
            r₁  =  Rate of Helium

            r₂  =  Rate of Oxygen

            M₂  =  Molar mass of Oxygen  =  32 g/mol

            M₁  =  Molar mass of Fluorine  =  4 g/mol

Putting values,

                                           r₁ / r₂  =  \sqrt{32 / 4}

                                           r₁ / r₂  =  \sqrt{8}

                                           r₁ / r₂  =  2.82
Result:
            Helium gas effuses 2.82 times faster than Oxygen gas.

A 1.25 × 10-4 m solution of the anti-inflammatory drug naproxen has a ph = 4.2. the ka and pka of naproxen are ________ and ____
Mandarinka [93]

Naproxen is known to be a weak acid. In order to calculate its ka and pka, use the equation of getting the ph of weak acid which is ph= -1/2 log [(Ka)(Mwa)]. The Ka value is 3.18x10^-5. The pKa can be obtained through pKa = - log Ka. The pKa is 4.5.
