As we have learned

Graham’s law of diffusion -

\dpi{100} r_{1}/r_{2}=\sqrt{M_{1}/M_{2}}  where r is rate of diffusion of gas , M is molar mass.

-

 

 Rate of diffusion \propto \frac{1}{M^{1/2}}

\frac{r_1}{r_2}= \frac{\sqrt {M_2}}{\sqrt {M_1}}

\frac{20/60}{V/30}= \frac{\sqrt {32}}{\sqrt {64}}

\Rightarrow V = 10 \sqrt 2 = 14.14
