Answer:
88.8 minutes
Explanation:
Graham's law of diffusion relates rate of difusion by the following formula
Rate1 / rate 2 = √( Mass of argon / Mass of Neon)
Where rate = volume divided by time
Rate 1 = 10 ml / t1
Rate 2 = 10 ml / t2
Rate 1/ rate 2 = 10 ml / t1 ÷ 10 ml/ t2 = t2/ t1
t2/t1 = √(Mass of argon / mass of Neon) = √( 39.984/20.179)
125 / t1 = 1.4026
t1 = 125 / 1.4026 = 88.8 minutes
