    The rate of gas effusion or diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of molar mass

    molar mass of neon is 20

    let the molar mass of unknown gas be y

    155/76=sqrs of y/20

    square both side to remove the square root sign

    155^2/76^2 = y/20

    by cross multiplication y={ (24025 x 20) / 5776}=83.18

    the gas is krypton since 83 is one isotope of krypton
