RMS velocity of oxygen molecules at NTP is 0.5 ~km / s . The RMS velocity for the hydrogen molecule at NTP is
Options
- A4 ~km / s
- B2 ~km / s
- C3 ~km / s
- D1 ~km / s
Correct answer
B. 2 ~km / s
Step-by-step solution
RMS velocity of molecules at NTP v_ rms = 3 R T M RMS velocity of oxygen molecules at NTP (v₁ )= 3 R T M₁ =0.5 ~km / s RMS velocity of hydrogen molecules at NTP aligned & (v₂ )= 3 R T M₂ & v₁ v₂ = M₂ M₁ & 0.5 v₂ = 2 32 & 0.5 v₂ = 1 4 & v₂=2 ~km / s & aligned
