  1. A 4 : 1
  2. B 2 : 1
  3. C 1 : 2
  4. D 1 : 4
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 2 : 1

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( v \propto \frac{Z}{n} \) \( \frac{v_{\text{He}^+}}{v_{\text{H}}} = \frac{(Z_{\text{He}^+}/n_{\text{He}^+})}{(Z_{\text{H}}/n_{\text{H}})} \) \( = \frac{(2/3)}{(1/3)} \) \( = 2:1 \)
