Paragraph According to Maxwell distribution law, the probability distribution function is given as below: F(v)=4π(M2πRT)3/2v2\mathrme−Mv2/2R T\mathbf{F}(\mathrm{v})=4 \pi\left(\frac{\mathrm{M}}{2 \pi \mathbf{R T}}\right)^{3 / 2} \mathrm{v}^2 \mathrme^{-M \mathrm{v}^2 / 2 R \mathrm{~T}} M-molar mass of gas, v-speed, R-gas constant, T-Absolute temperature Fraction of molecule in the range of v1v_1 to v2=∫v1v2f(v)dvv_2=\int_{v_1}^{v_2} f(v) d vQuestion Average speed ( Vavg \mathrm{V}_{\text {avg }} ) most probable speed ( vmp\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{mp}} ) and root mean square ( vms\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{ms}} ) speeds can be derived from Maxwell distribution. Choose the incorrect option regarding molecular speeds

Options

  1. Avavg =∫0∞vf(v)dvv_{\text {avg }}=\int_0^{\infty} v f(v) d v
  2. Bvmp=df(v)dv=0v_{m p}=\frac{d f(v)}{d v}=0
  3. Cvms2=∫0∞v2f(v)dvv_{\mathrm{ms}}^2=\int_0^{\infty} v^2 f(v) d v
  4. Dvms=∫0∞vf(v)dvv_{\mathrm{ms}}=\int_0^{\infty} v \sqrt{f(v)} d v

Correct answer

D. vms=∫0∞vf(v)dvv_{\mathrm{ms}}=\int_0^{\infty} v \sqrt{f(v)} d v

Step-by-step solution

vavg=∫0∞vf(v)dvvmp=df(v)dv=0vrms2=∫0∞v2f(v)dv\mathbf{v}_{\mathrm{avg}}=\int_0^{\infty} \mathrm{vf}(\mathrm{v}) \mathbf{d v}v_{m p}=\frac{d f(v)}{d v}=0\mathbf{v}_{\mathrm{rms}}^2=\int_0^{\infty} \mathbf{v}^2 \mathbf{f}(\mathbf{v}) \mathbf{d v}
