The root mean square velocity of the gas molecules is 300 m/s. What will be the root mean square speed of the molecules if the atomic weight is double and absolute temperature is halved?

a
300 m/s
b
150 m/s
c
600 m/s
d
75 m/s

detailed solution

Correct option is B

vrms=3RTMOr 300=3RTMAndvrms'=3R(T/2)2M=12×300=150 m/s
