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.

Balance the following redox equations by the ion-electron method:? A) H2O2 + Fe 2+ ---> Fe 3+ + H2O (in the acidic solution)
Vaselesa [24]
We balance the given reactions above by following the rules in balancing redox reactions in acidic or basic solutions. Balance the atoms aside from the O and H atoms. Then we balance the Os and Hs by adding H2O or H+. Finally, we balance the total charge of the reactant and product by adding e-. We do as follows:

<span>A) H2O2 + Fe 2+ ---> Fe 3+ + H2O (in the acidic solution)
</span><span>   2H+ + </span>H2O2 + Fe 2+ ---> Fe 3+ + 2H2O 
   e- + 2H+ + H2O2 + Fe 2+ ---> Fe 3+ + 2H2O 
<span>
C) CN- + MnO4- ---> CNO- +MnO2 (in basic solution)
</span>     CN- + MnO4- ---> CNO- +MnO2 + H2O
     2H+ + CN- + MnO4- ---> CNO- +MnO2 + H2O
     2OH- + 2H+ + CN- + MnO4- ---> CNO- +MnO2 + H2O + 2OH-
     2H2O + CN- + MnO4- ---> CNO- +MnO2 + H2O + 2OH-
     e- + H2O + CN- + MnO4- ---> CNO- +MnO2 + 2OH-
<span>
E) S2O2/3- + I2 ---> I- + S4O2/6- (in acidic solution)
    2</span>S2O2/3- + I2 ---> 2I- + S4O2/6- 
    4H+ + 2S2O2/3- + I2 ---> 2I- + S4O2/6- + 2H2O
    6e- + 4H+ + 2S2O2/3- + I2 ---> 2I- + S4O2/6- + 2H2O

An electrically neutral atom has an atomic mass of 30.973 and an atomic number of 15. How many neutrons does this atom have?____
Serggg [28]

Answer: 16 neutrons

Explanation: The atomic number for any element is the number of protons in its atomic nuclei. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons are the same as the number of protons. The atomic mass (mass number) is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Mass number can vary due to the fact that the number of neutrons can vary. Isotopes are named for their mass numbers.

So, this element has 15 protons (atomic number), 15 electrons, and 16 neutrons (mass number minus atomic number).

This isotope is phosphorus-31, which has atomic number 15.
