$A$ mixture of $2\, moles$ of helium gas (atomic mass $= 4\, u$) and $1\, mole$ of argon gas (atomic mass $= 40\, u$) is kept at $300\, K$ in a container. The ratio of their rms speeds $\left[ \frac{V_{rms}(\text{helium})}{V_{rms}(\text{argon})} \right]$ is close to:

  • A
    $3.16$
  • B
    $0.32$
  • C
    $0.45$
  • D

$A$ container is divided into two equal halves by a diathermic partition. Two different ideal gases are filled in the left $(L)$ and right $(R)$ parts. The $rms$ speed of the molecules in the $L$ part is equal to the average speed of the molecules in the $R$ part. Find the ratio of the mass of a molecule in the $L$ part to the mass of a molecule in the $R$ part.
