<span>128 g/mol Using Graham's law of effusion we have the formula: r1/r2 = sqrt(m2/m1) where r1 = rate of effusion for gas 1 r2 = rate of effusion for gas 2 m1 = molar mass of gas 1 m2 = molar mass of gas 2 Since the atomic weight of oxygen is 15.999, the molar mass for O2 = 2 * 15.999 = 31.998 Now let's subsitute the known values into Graham's equation and solve for m2. r1/r2 = sqrt(m2/m1) 2/1 = sqrt(m2/31.998) 4/1 = m2/31.998 127.992 = m2 So the molar mass of the unknown gas is 127.992 g/mol. Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 128 g/mol</span>

How does an atom of one element differ from the atom of another element?
Temka [501]

Explanation:

The atoms of one element differs from the atoms of other elements in terms of the number of protons they contain. This is often taken as the atomic number of such an atom.

  • The number of proton is the best indicator of the atom one is dealing with.
  • Based on this number, elements are categorized into distinct columns and rows on the periodic table.
  • The atomic number is the number of protons or positively charge particles in the atom.

II.

It is possible to change the identity of an atom. This is only possible by altering the atomic number of the atom.

Only nuclear reactions have this capability.

When an atom undergoes nuclear reaction that involves change in number of protons, transmutation occurs and a new atom forms.

Particles of clay and silt eroded and deposited by the wind are called
Ivanshal [37]
The correct answer to your question would be B) Loess, or <span>Aeolian deposits , reasoning to your question is because, loess is a german word but in english means loss or loose. So given that clay and small particles that are not combined together are loose particles. moves freely. Hope this helps you out.
