Graham’s Law of Effusion Effusion – the process whereby the molecules of a gas confined in a container randomly pass through a tiny opening in the container. Rate (like diffusion) depends on the relative velocities of gas molecules. Lighter molecules move faster than heavier molecules at the same temperature.

Graham’s Law of Effusion The rates of effusion of gases at the same temperature and pressure are inversely proportional to the square roots of their molar masses. Rate of effusion of A = MB Rate of effusion of B MA M = molar masses, density of a gas varies directly with molar mass, can replace molar mass with density
