States of Matter Chemistry Question.?

Natural uranium, consisting of 99.3% U-238 and 0.7% U-235, must be separated into its component isotopes for commercial purposes. It is first converted to the gas UF6 and then the mixture of gases is ped at low pressure through a porous solid. Using Graham's Law of Diffusion, explain how this procedure separates the isotopes.
