The ratio of average velocity of a gas molecule to the root mean square velocity at a particular temperature is
Options
- A1 : 1.81
- B1.81 : 1
- C2 : 1.81
- D1.81 : 2
Correct answer
A. 1 : 1.81
Step-by-step solution
The expression for root mean square velocity is ( _ rms )= 3 R T M , and for average speed, ( _ avg )= 8 R T M For a particular gas, at particular temperature M and T are constant. aligned _ avg _ rms & = 8 R T M : 3 R T M & = 2.54 : 3 & =1: 1.81 aligned
