If a balloon is filled with a mixture of helium and oxygen, which gas will escape faster? Why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Serjik [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The rate of leakage will be higher for helium; its molecules move about 3 times faster than oxygen’s

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Molar mass helium = 4.0 g/mol

Molar mass O2 = 32 g/mol

Step 2: Graham's law

Graham's Law of Effusion states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular mass : 1/(Mr)^0.5

Rate of escape for He = 1/(4.0)^0.5 = 0.5

Rate of escape for O2 = 1/(32)^0.5 = 0.177

The rate of leakage will be higher for helium; its molecules move about 3 times faster than oxygen’s

What is the relationship between density and viscosity?
PolarNik [594]

Answer:There is no relationship between the viscosity and density of a fluid. While viscosity is the thickness or thinness of a fluid, density refers to the space between its particles. However, both properties are affected by temperature. When a fluid is heated, its particles move far apart, and it also becomes less viscous.
