Answer:

2.02 times

Explanation:

According to Graham's law, the rate of effusion of two gases can be expresed as:

\frac{Rate_{1}}{Rate_{2}} =\sqrt{\frac{M_{2}}{M_{1}} }

Where M are the atomic/molecular masses of the gases.

In this problem, the subscript 1 refers to O₂ gas (32 g/mol), and the subscript 2 refers to Xe gas (131.293 g/mol).

Putting the data in the equation gives us:

\frac{RateO_{2}}{RateXe}=\sqrt{\frac{131.293}{32} }  =2.02

So O₂ effuses at a rate that is 2.02 times faster than the rate of Xe.
