Which of the following gases has the lowerst rate of diffusion under the same conditions of temperature and pressure? [H = 1, O = 16, Ne = 20, CI = 35]

A gas with low molecular mass can diffuse more rapidly than one with high molecular mass under similar condition.
so chlorine has the highest molecular mass therefore chlorine will be the gas with the lowest rate of diffusion

Chlorine would diffuse slowest because it has the highest molecular mass and hydrogen would diffuse highest because lowest molecular mass of 2

using Graham's law of diffusion
R=K/√M
R=rate of reaction
k=constant
M=molar mass
