Determine the rato of root mean square velocity nad average velocity of the molecules in a gas at a given temperature.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

If M and T be the molar mass and temperature of gas, then the room mean square velocity,
`c_(rmc)=sqrt((3RT)/(M))` and the average velocity,
`(c^(-))=sqrt((8RT)/(piM))" "therefore (c_(rms))/(c^(-))=sqrt((3pi)/(8))=1.085`
