The rms speed (in m / s ) of oxygen molecules of the gas at temperature 300 K , is
Options
- A483
- B504
- C377
- D346
Correct answer
A. 483
Step-by-step solution
The rms speed is given by v_ rms = 3 R T M₀ where, aligned R & = gas constant T & = Temperature of the gas and M₀ & = Molecular weight of the gas & = 3 8.3 300 32 10⁻³ & =483 ~m / s aligned
