The density of vapours of substance at 1 atm and 600K is 0.32kg/m3. Vapours effuse through a small orifice at a rate of 1.414 times faster than O2 at same conditions. The Z of the vapours is: R=112latm/molK;253J/molK

Solution
When the gas effuses, velocity ∝√1M VxVO2∝√MO2Mx ⇒VxVO2=√32x=1.414 ⇒√32x=√2 ⇒x=16g/mol
Molar volume of the gas, Vm=16gmol×1kg1000g×m30.32kg =50×10−3m3=50L/mol
