Q. The rate of diffusion of a gas is proportional to

A) $\frac{p}{\sqrt{d}}$
B) $\sqrt{\frac{p}{d}}$
C) $\frac{p}{d}$
D) $\frac{\sqrt{p}}{d}$
Explanation

(a)
$Rate\ of\ diffusion\ \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{d}}$
$Rate\ of\ diffusion \propto p$
$\therefore Rate\ of\ diffusion\ \propto \frac{p}{\sqrt{d}}$
