To determine which gas will leak rapidly from a closed vessel containing equal numbers of hydrogen and oxygen molecules through a fine hole, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Concept of RMS Speed The root mean square (RMS) speed of gas molecules is a measure of the average speed of the molecules in a gas. It is influenced by the mass of the gas molecules and their temperature. ### Step 2: Relate RMS Speed to Density The RMS speed (\(v_{rms}\)) of a gas is given by the formula: \[ ...
