Graham's Law

cava s2d12 303 1.13 Graham's law of effusion

QuestionAnswer
[...]: movement of gas molecules from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration diffusion: movement of gas molecules from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration
[...]: movement of gases through a tiny pore or opening effusion: movement of gases through a tiny pore or opening
HS Chemistry courses love the word effusion, but it really just means diffusing [...]. HS Chemistry courses love the word effusion, but it really just means diffusing out of an opening.
Graham's law of effusion: The rate of effusion is [-ly] proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas particles. Graham's law of effusion: The rate of effusion is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas particles.
Graham's law math: [...] Graham's law math: Rate gas1 / Rate gas2 = Sqrt{ mass gas 2 } / sqrt{ mass gas1 }
Notice that in Graham's law, gas 1 is on top on the left, but on [...] on the right. Notice that in Graham's law, gas 1 is on top on the left, but on bottom on the right.
Although Graham's law describes *effusion* rates, it can also be used to describe *[...] rates* and sometimes test-writers throw *[...] rate* questions at you and expect you to know that Graham's law relates to both. Although Graham's law describes *effusion* rates, it can also be used to describe *diffusion rates* and sometimes test-writers throw *diffusion rate* questions at you and expect you to know that Graham's law relates to both.
Graham's law is used for BOTH effusion and [...] rate problems, even though his law is called Graham's law of *effusion*. Graham's law is used for BOTH effusion and diffusion rate problems, even though his law is called Graham's law of *effusion*.
Graham's law of effusion: The rate of effusion is inversely proportional to the [...] of the molar mass of the gas particles. Graham's law of effusion: The rate of effusion is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas particles.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:
