Graham's Law:
"Under similar conditions of pressure (partial pressure) the rate of diffusion of different gases is inversely proportional to square root of the density of different gases."
rate of diffusion $r \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{d}} d=$ density of gas
$r=\text { volume flow rate }=\frac{d V_{\text {out }}}{d t}$
$r=\text { moles flow rate }=\frac{d n_{\text {out }}}{d t}$
$r=$ distance travelled by gaseous molecules per unit time $=\frac{ dx }{ dt }$
The general form of the Grahams law of diffusion shows the variation of rate of diffusion of a gas with pressure of gas, temperature of gas, area of cross-section of orifice and molecular mass of the gas.

2. At room temperature, $A_{2}$ gas (vapour density $=40$ ) at $1 atm$ pressure and $B_{2}$ gas (vapour density = 10) at $p$ atm pressure are allowed to diffuse through identical pinholes from opposite ends of a glass tube of $1 m$ length and of uniform cross-section.
