A certain gas is taken to the five s t a t e s represented by dots in the graph. The plotted lines are isotherms. Order of the most probable speed of the molecules at these five states is

Options
- A(v_{p \text{ at } 3}>v_{p \text{ at } 1}=v_{p \text{ at } 2}>v_{p \text{ at } 4}=v_p) at 5
- B(v_{p \text{ at } 1}>v_{p \text{ at } 2}=v_{p \text{ at } 3}>v_{p \text{ at } 4}=v_p) at 5
- C(v_{p \text{ at } 3}>v_{p \text{ at } 2}=v_{p \text{ at } 4}>v_{p \text{ at } 1}=v_{p \text{ at } 5})
- Dinsufficient information to predict the result.
Correct answer
A. (v_{p \text{ at } 3}>v_{p \text{ at } 1}=v_{p \text{ at } 2}>v_{p \text{ at } 4}=v_p) at 5
Step-by-step solution
Stages 1 and 2 are at the same temperature. Also stages 4 and 5 are at same temperature. As is more at higher temperature and same at all stages at equal temperature.
