(b) $\left(\frac{M_{A}}{M_{B}}\right)\left(\frac{p_{A}}{p_{B}}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$
(c) $\left(\frac{p_{A}}{p_{B}}\right)\left(\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$
(d) $\left(\frac{M_{A}}{M_{B}}\right)\left(\frac{p_{B}}{p_{A}}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

Solution:
- Rate of effusion $\propto p_{i} ; p_{i}=$ Partial pressure of $i$ th component
$$ \propto \sqrt{\frac{1}{M}} $$
