Correct answer: 4
- For an ideal gas, the diffusion coefficient is proportional to mean free path and mean speed:
- Mean free path of a gas is given by
because
- Mean speed is proportional to the square root of temperature:
- Therefore,
- Now temperature is increased times and pressure is increased times:
- Simplify:
So,
