Explanation

• Effusion is the escape of gas molecules through a tiny hole.
• According to Graham’s law, rate of effusion ∝ 1/√molar mass.
• Lighter gases effuse faster than heavier gases.
• Among given options, hydrogen has the lowest molar mass (H₂ = 2 g/mol).
• Therefore, it moves and escapes the fastest.
