Which of the following correctly describe gaseous diffusion or effusion?
A
Effusion is the escape of gas molecules through a tiny hole into a vacuum or region of lower pressure
B
The rate of effusion in moles per second of a gas at pressure
p
and temperature
T
is proportional to
p
/
MT
C
Two gases at the same temperature and pressure with molar masses in the ratio

D
The time required for a given number of moles to effuse is proportional to
M
