The conditions in tornado alley are more favorable. In the summer, the plains of middle US get increasingly hot which in turn, cause updrafts as well as thunderstorms. When hot air becomes unstable and rises it meets cooler air above the thunderclouds, which causes tornadoes.</span>
Answer : The correct option is, (B) 
Solution :
According to the Graham's law, the rate of effusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of gas.
or,
..........(1)
where,
= rate of effusion of unknown gas = 
= rate of effusion of oxygen gas = 
= molar mass of unknown gas = ?
= molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mole
Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:
The unknown gas could be carbon dioxide 
that has approximately 44 g/mole of molar mass.
Thus, the unknown gas could be carbon dioxide
Answer:
2Mg(s) +O₂(g) → 2MgO(s)
Explanation:
Mg(s) +O₂(g) → MgO(s)
When a chemical equation is balanced, the number of atoms of each element is equal on both sides of the arrow. We usually balance O and H last.
In this case, the number of Mg atoms is equal on both sides. Thus, let's move on to balance the O atoms. On the left side, there are 2 O atoms, while there is only 1 O atom on the left side. Thus, write a '2' in front of MgO.
Mg(s) +O₂(g) → 2MgO(s)
Now, the number of Mg atoms is not equal. Write a '2' in front of Mg to balance it.
2Mg(s) +O₂(g) → 2MgO(s)
The equation is now balanced with 2 Mg atoms and 2 O atoms on each side.
