To find the de-Broglie wavelength of a nitrogen molecule in air at 300K, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the mass of a nitrogen molecule (N2) The atomic mass of nitrogen (N) is given as 14.0076 u. Since a nitrogen molecule is diatomic (N2), we need to multiply this value by 2. \[ \text{Mass of } N_2 = 2 \times 14.0076 \, \text{u} = 28.0152 \, \text{u} \] ...
