No, the shape does not change.

At the same (T), ( \frac12 m v^2 ) is constant on average. Heavier molecules ((^238\textUF_6)) have a lower most probable speed. The two curves overlap significantly but are shifted. No, the shape does not change

Effusion rate depends on the average speed ((v_avg = \sqrt\frac8RT\pi M)). The small difference in mass leads to a small difference in average speed. No, the shape does not change
