Distribution of molecules with velocity ...

Distribution of molecules with velocity is represented by the curve

Velocity corresponding to point `A` is

A

`sqrt((3RT)/(M))`

B

`sqrt((2RT)/(M))`

C

`sqrt((8RT)/(piM))`

D

`sqrt((RT)/(M))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Point `A` represents the most probable distribution of molecules. Hence, the most probable velocity is `sqrt(2RT//M)`.
