Per Graham, effusion rate is inversely proportional to what?
ASquare of its molar mass
BIts total molar mass
CIts absolute temperature
DSquare root of its molar mass
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Square root of its molar mass
Rate varies as one over the square root of molar mass, so heavier gases effuse more slowly.
