Answer: Different gases effuse at different rates because at a given temperature, gas particles with smaller masses move faster.

Explanation: The motion of particles in a gas depends on the kinetic energy of the gas particles which further depend on the temperature of the gas. Thus, the rate of gas given by Graham's law can only be stated when the two gases are at fixed temperature.

Graham's Law: This law states that the rate of effusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its mass.

Mathematically,

\frac{(Rate)_1}{(Rate)_2}=\sqrt{\frac{M_2}{M_1}}

From the above relation, the gas particle with smaller mass will effuse faster at a given temperature.

Margaret [11]
The answer is C due to the rain making contact with the iron it creates moisture which cause the iron to begin oxidizing which causes the iron to rust which is a chemical reaction then the blade which was once malleable because it was heat becomes harden and rust is created as I said before the physical aspect of the iron chances due to rust developing on it it's no longer has the luster it once had
