Question

$O _{2}$ and $SO _{2}$ is filled in two different containers 'A' and 'B' respectively at same $T$ and $P$. 'A' has circular orifice while 'B' has square orifice of edge length equal to the diameter of the orifice of vessel 'A', then ratio of rate of diffusion of the gases from vessel $A$ to that from vessel $B$ will be :

(A) $\pi: 2 \sqrt{2}$

(B) $\frac{4}{\sqrt{2}}: \pi$

(C) $\sqrt{2} \pi: 1$

(D) $\pi: 2$

Answer 1

The ratio of rate of diffusion of the gases from vessel A to that from vessel B will be $\pi: 2 \sqrt{2}$. So, The correct option of this question is (A).
