Effusion of gases take place through a hole with:
Correct answer: D. Molecular dimensions
- A. Hole dimensions
- B. Infinite dimensions
- C. Slit like dimensions
- D. Molecular dimensions
Explanation
Effusion moves the gas molecules from one container to another through a tiny hole however only a single molecule of gas passes thus it is named as molecular dimension.

About Kinetic Molecular Theory
Kinetic molecular theory explains gases as rapidly moving particles separated by large distances, with negligible volume and negligible intermolecular attraction in the ideal model. It relates temperature to average kinetic energy and explains gas pressure, Boyle's and Charles's laws, diffusion, effusion and the conditions under which real gases deviate from ideal behavior.
