    From Grahams Law the rates of effusion of two gases are inversely proportional to the square roots of their molar masses at the same temperature and pressure.

    Therefore; R1/R2 = √mm2/√mm1

    The molecular mass of Carbon dioxide is 44 g

    Hence; 1.8 = √ (44/x

    3.24 = 44/x

    x = 44/3.24

    = 13.58

    Therefore, the molar mass of the other gas is 13.58 g/mol
