Questions
A flask contains hydrogen and helium in the ratio 2 : 1 by mass. The temperature of the mixture is 27oC. Obtain the ratio of rms speeds of the molecules of the two gases. Molecular mass of hydrogen = 2, molecular mass of helium = 4.
detailed solution
Correct option is B
Average KE of the molecule =12mvrms2 For hydrogen, 12mHvH2=32 kT …(1)For helium, 12mHevHe2=32kT …(2)So, vH2vHe2=MHeMH=42=2Or, vHvHe=2:1.Talk to our academic expert!
