At a given temperature if V_(rms) is the root mean square velocity of the molecules of a gas and V_(s) be the velocity of sound in it, then these are related as (gamma=(C_(p))/(C_(v)))

The root mean square velocity of the molecules of a gas is 200m//s . What will be the rms velocity of the molecules if the atomic weight is doubled and the absolute temperature is halved?

Root mean square velocity of a gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Assertion : The root mean square velocity of molecules of a gas having Maxwellian distribution of velocities is higher than their most probable velocity, at any temperature. Reason : A very small no. of molecules of a gas which possess very large velocities increase root mean square velocity, without affecting most probable velocity.

The kinetic theory of gases states that the average squared velocity of molecules varies linearly with the mean molecular weight of the gas. If the root mean square (rms) velocity of oxygen molecules at a certain temperature is 0.5 km/sec. The rms velocity for hydrogen molecules at the same temperature will be :
