Diffusion is the process of a substance spreading out to evenly fill its container or environment. Rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the molar mass of the gas.

Lighter(lower) the molar mass of the gas , faster will be its rate of diffusion and heavier (higher) the molar mass of the gas , slower will be its rate of diffusion.
We have to arrange the given gases from slowest rate of diffusion to fastest rate of diffusion that means we need to arrange gases from higher molar mass to lower molar mass.
Molar mass of given gases are :
Cl = 35.5 g/mol
Xe = 131.29 g/mol
He = 4.00 g/mol
N = 14.00 g/mol
So correct order for slowest rate of diffusion (highest molar mass) to fastest rate of diffusion (lowest molar mass) is :
Xe , Cl , N , He
Xe having the highest molar mass will have the slowest rate of diffusion and He with lowest molar mass will have the fastest rate of diffusion, so option 'c' is correct.
Note : Slowest rate of diffusion = High Molar Mass
Fastest rate of diffusion = Low Molar Mass
Answer:
Three of the five oxides are expected to form acidic solutions in water
Explanation:
We have different types of oxides : Acidic oxides, Basic oxides, Amphoteric oxides, Peroxides and Higher oxides.
Only acidic oxides will dissolve in water to give an acidic solution.
Considering the given oxides carefully,
- SO2 will dissolve in water to produce H2SO3 which is acidic.
- Y2O3 will dissolve in water to produce Yttrium(III) hydroxide which is basic.
- MgO will dissolve in water only to produce Mg(OH)2 which is also basic.
- Cl2O dichlorine mono oxide will dissolve in water to produce HClO which is acidic.
- N2O5 will dissolve in water to produce HNO3 which is also acidic.
