Answer : The molar mass of the unknown gas will be 79.7 g/mol
Explanation : To solve this question we can use graham's law;
Now we can use nitrogen as the gas number 2, which travels faster than gas 1;
So, 167 / 99 = 1.687 So the nitrogen gas is 1.687 times faster that the unknown gas 1
We can compare the rates of both the gases;
So here, Rate of gas 2 / Rate of gas 1 =
Now, 1.687 = square root [ ]
When we square both the sides we get;
2.845 = (molar mass 1) / (28.01 g/mol N2)
On rearranging, we get,
2.845 X (28.01 g/mol N2) = Molar mass 1
So the molar mass of unknown gas will be = 79.7 g/mol
