The molar mass of unknown gas is 63.5 g/mol

calculation

let the unknown gas be represent by letter Y  

The rate of effusion of a gas varies inversely with square root of molar mass

that is R(CH4)/ R(Y)= √[(M(Y)/M(CH4)]

= 47.8 ml/min/24.0ml/min= √[(Y/16g/mol)]

square both side to remove square root sign

=47.8²ml/min /24²ml/min= Y/16 g/mol

=2284.84ml/min/576ml/min=Y/16g/mol

multiply both side by 16

y =63.5 g/mol

Answer:

Explanation:

The Lanthanides were first discovered in 1787 when a unusual black mineral was found in Ytterby, Sweden. This mineral, now known as Gadolinite, was later separated into the various Lanthanide elements. In 1794, Professor Gadolin obtained yttria, an impure form of yttrium oxide, from the mineral.
