Consider the adjacent diagram. Initially, flask contained oxygen gas at
and 950 mm of Hg, and flask
contained neon gas at
and 900 mm. Finally, two flask were joined by means of a narrow tube of negligible volume equipped with a stopcock and gases were allowed to mixup freely. The final pressure in the combined system was found to be 910 mm of Hg
Which of the following statements concerning oxygen and neon gas is true in the beginning, when the stopcock was just opened? |
|
a) |
|
b) |
|
c) |
Both |
d) |
Insufficient information to compare the rate of effusion |
