QUESTION:

An equimolar mixture of \(H_2\) and \(D_2\) effuses through an orifice (small hole) at a certain temperature. Calculate the composition (in mole fractions) of the gases that pass through the orifice. The molar mass of \(D_2\) is 2.014 g/mol.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 3

The ratio of the diffusion rates of two gases is dependent on their molar masses as follows;

                                                   

Here,

 and  = Diffusion / effusion rates

 and  = Molar masses
