    3 : 1

    Explanation:

    Let the rate of He be R1

    Molar Mass of He (M1) = 4g/mol

    Let the rate of O2 be R2

    Molar Mass of O2 (M2) = 32g/mol

    Recall:

    R1/R2 = √ (M2/M1)

    R1/R2 = √ (32/4)

    R1/R2 = √8

    R1/R2 = 3

    The ratio of rate of effusion of Helium to oxygen is 3 : 1
