The ratio of velocity of sound in hydrogen and oxygen at STP is

A

`16:1`

B

`8:1`

C

`4:1`

D

`2:1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
`v=(sqrt((gammaRT)/(m))),gamma` is the same as both hydrogen and oxygen are diatomic
`:.^(vH)/(V_(o))=sqrt(M_(o)/(M_(H)))=sqrt((16)/(1))impliesV_(H):V_(o)=4:1`
