Questions  

At what temperature is the root mean square velocity of gaseous hydrogen molecules is equal to that of oxygen molecules at 470C?

a
20 K
b
80 K
c
-73 K
d
3 K

detailed solution

Correct option is A

For oxygen v02 = 3RT02MO2        andFor hydrogen vH2 = 3RTH2MH2According to problem = 3RTO2MO2 = 3RTH2MH2⇒TO 2MO2 = TH2MH2 ⇒ 47 + 27332  = TH2MH2⇒ TH2 = 32032×2 = 20 K
