If $N_2$,$O_2$,$H_2$,and $He$ are filled in four separate car tubes at the same pressure,which one will leak out first?

The translational kinetic energy of an ideal gas depends only on its

The average kinetic energy of one molecule of an ideal gas at $27^{\circ} C$ and $1 \ atm$ pressure is

$X$ and $Y$ are two volatile liquids with molar weights of $10 \ g \ mol^{-1}$ and $40 \ g \ mol^{-1}$ respectively. Two cotton plugs,one soaked in $X$ and the other soaked in $Y$,are simultaneously placed at the ends of a tube of length $L = 24 \ cm$. The tube is filled with an inert gas at $1 \ atmosphere$ pressure and a temperature of $300 \ K$. Vapours of $X$ and $Y$ react to form a product which is first observed at a distance $d \ cm$ from the plug soaked in $X$. Take $X$ and $Y$ to have equal molecular diameters and assume ideal behaviour for the inert gas and the two vapours.
$1.$ The value of $d$ in $cm$,as estimated from Graham's law,is:
$(A) \ 8 \ (B) \ 12 \ (C) \ 16 \ (D) \ 20$
$2.$ The experimental value of $d$ is found to be smaller than the estimate obtained using Graham's law. This is due to:
$(A)$ larger mean free path for $X$ as compared to that of $Y$.
$(B)$ larger mean free path for $Y$ as compared to that of $X$.
$(C)$ increased collision frequency of $Y$ with the inert gas as compared to that of $X$ with the inert gas.
$(D)$ increased collision frequency of $X$ with the inert gas as compared to that of $Y$ with the inert gas.
Give the answer for question $1$ and $2$.
