Think about this.
PV = nRT for each gas, therefore, if we solve for n = PV/RT then
(PV/RT)<Ar = (PV/RT)H2. Then, since
n = grams/molar mass, we can write
(PV/RT)Ar = (PV/RT)H2 = (g/MM)Ar = (g/MM)H2. Since P, V, R, and T are the same, we can dispense with the PV/RT and just write
(g/MM)Ar = (g/MM)H2.
