Solution

To solve this problem, we can use Graham's law of effusion, which states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass.

The formula for Graham's law is: (Rate1/Rate2) = sqrt(M2/M1)

Given that the molar mass of He is 4 g/mol and the molar mass of CO is 28 g/mol, we can substitute these values into the formula:

(0.990 moles He / x moles CO) = sqrt(28 g/mol / 4 g/mol)

Solving for x gives us:

x = 0.990 moles He * sqrt(4 g/mol / 28 g/mol)

x = 0.374 moles CO

So, 0.374 moles of CO would effuse in the same period of time.
