MHT CET2009PhysicsKinetic Theory of Gases
To what temperature should the hydrogen at 327^ C be cooled at constant pressure, so that the root mean square velocity of its molecules becomes half of its previous value?
Options
- A-123^ C
- B123^ C
- C-100^ C
- D0^ C
Correct answer
A. -123^ C
Step-by-step solution
v_ ms 3 R T M array ll & T v_ rms ² & T₂ T₁ = [ v₂ v₁ ]²= 1 4 & T₂= T₁ 4 = (273+327) 4 & =150 ~K =-123^ C array
