The ratio of average speed of an oxygen ...

The ratio of average speed of an oxygen molecular to the r.m.s. speed of a `N_(2)` molecular at the same temperature is `:`

A

`((3pi )/( 7) )^(1//2)`

B

`(( 7)/( 3pi ))^(1//2)`

C

`((3)/( 7pi ))^(1//2)`

D

`((7pi)/( 3))^(1//2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`u_(av)` of `O_(2) = sqrt((8RT)/( M)) = sqrt(( 8 RT)/( pi xx 32))`
`u_("rms") ` or `N_(2) = sqrt(( 3RT)/( M)) = sqrt(( 3RT)/( 28))`
`( u_(av))/( u_("rms")) = sqrt((8RT)/(pi xx 32)) xx sqrt((28)/( 3RT)) = (7^(1/2))/( 3pi) `
