Diffusion rate is inversely proportional to the square root of what quantity at constant temperature?
AGas pressure
BGas volume
CMole fraction
DGas density
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Gas density
At fixed temperature and pressure, density is proportional to molar mass, so rate falls with the root of density.
