At `400 K`, the root mean square (rms) speed of a gas X (molecular weight = 40) is equal to the most probable speed of gas Y at 60 K. The molecular weight of the gas Y is.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
4

`(sqrt((3RT)/(m)))_(X) = (sqrt((2RT)/(m)))_(Y)`
`sqrt((3 R 400)/(40)) = sqrt((2 R 60)/(m))`
`sqrt(30) = sqrt((4 xx 30)/(m))`
`m = 4`
