The ratio of average speed of a gas molecule to the root mean square speed at a particular temperature is
Options
- A2 : 1.08
- B1.08 : 1
- C1 : 1.08
- D1.08 : 2
Correct answer
C. 1 : 1.08
Step-by-step solution
v_ avg = 8RT M , v_ rms = 3RT M v_ avg v_ rms = 8RT/ M 3RT/M = 8 3 = 8 3 3.14159 0.849 1 1.085 v_ avg : v_ rms = 1 : 1.08
