Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation

The rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass (Graham's law). This means that gases with a higher molar mass will diffuse more slowly than gases with a lower molar mass. Given the molar masses of the gases in the options, Oxygen (O=16.0) has the highest molar mass and therefore the lowest rate of diffusion
