2) If it takes 24 seconds from the time of concentrated ammonia is opened on demonstration desk until student in front now can smell ammonia, how long will it take from time a little Hydrogen sulphide escapes from the same place until students in the front row can smell Hydrogen sulphide. Given (N=14.0, H=1.0, S=32.0)
Solution
Step I
from Graham's law
Time of diffusion of ammonia = Molecular mass NH3
Time of diffusion of sulphide    molecular mass H2S
Step II
calculate molecular mass by adding atomic masses
i) Ammonia (NH3); N=14.0;
        
3H= 1 x
           
ii) Hydrogen Sulphide H2S;
        
2(H)= 1x2=2
   1(S)=32 x1=
