The ratio of effusion rates for the lightest gas H₂ to the heaviest known gas UF₆ is 13.21 to 1
<h3>What is effusion?</h3>
Effusion is a process by which a gas escapes from its container through a tiny hole into evacuated space.
Rate of effusion ∝ 1/√Ц, (where Ц is molar mass)
Rate H₂ = 1/√ЦH₂
Rate UF₆ = 1/√ЦUF₆
Therefore, Rate H₂/ Rate UF₆ = √ЦH₂/√ЦUF₆
ЦH₂= 2.016 g/mol
ЦUF₆= 352.04 g/mol
Rate H₂ / Rate UF₆ = √352.04/√2.016 = 18.76/1.42
Rate H₂ / Rate UF₆ = 13.21
Therefore, H₂ is lower mass than UF₆. Thus H₂ gas will effuse 13 times more faster than UF₆ because the most probable speed of H₂ molecule is higher; therefore, more molecules escapes per unit time.

Answer:True
Explanation:
Water is said to be hard when it contains calcium ions or magnesium ions dissolved in it. These ions are able to react with soap in such a way that the soap is prevented from forming lather with the water. Hard water occurs when water passes over calcium or magnesium bearing minerals and dissolves some of it. Hardness due to the presence of calcium ions can easily be removed by boiling the water.
After dipping the litmus paper strips in the solutions, the answer to the question is that one is acidic because according to brad's observation on turned red and the others are basic or alkaline with the two papers turning blue.
