The rms speed of an oxygen molecule at a certain temperature is $600 \,ms^{-1}$. If the temperature is doubled and the oxygen molecule dissociates into atomic oxygen atoms,the new rms speed is (in $\,ms^{-1}$)

  • A
    $120$
  • B
    $150$
  • C

The value closest to the thermal velocity of a Helium atom at room temperature $(300\,K)$ in $m/s$ is $[k_B = 1.4 \times 10^{-23}\,J/K; m_{He} = 7 \times 10^{-27}\,kg]$.

Consider a sample of oxygen behaving like an ideal gas. At $300 \, K$,the ratio of root mean square (rms) velocity to the average velocity of gas molecules would be: (Molecular weight of oxygen is $32 \, g/mol$,$R = 8.3 \, J \, K^{-1} \, mol^{-1}$)

The root mean square $(r.m.s.)$ velocity of a gas particle is $v$ at pressure $P$. If the pressure is increased to $2P$ while keeping the temperature constant,the $r.m.s.$ velocity becomes:

At a temperature of $27^{\circ}C$ and a pressure of $1 \, atm$,the ratio of the root mean square velocities $(\nu_{rms})_{H_2} / (\nu_{rms})_{O_2}$ for hydrogen and oxygen molecules is:

Let $\bar{v}$,${v_{rms}}$ and ${v_p}$ respectively denote the mean speed,root mean square speed,and most probable speed of the molecules in an ideal monoatomic gas at absolute temperature $T$. The mass of a molecule is $m$. Then
