AI Generated Solution

To find the temperature at which the root mean square (rms) speed of an argon atom is equal to the rms speed of a helium atom at -20°C, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the temperature of helium from Celsius to Kelvin The formula to convert Celsius to Kelvin is: \[ T(K) = T(°C) + 273 \] Given that the temperature of helium is -20°C: \[ T_{He} = -20 + 273 = 253 \, K \] ...
