AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the temperatures at which methane (CH₄) and ethane (C₂H₆) will have the same root mean square (RMS) speed as carbon dioxide (CO₂) at 400°C. We will also calculate the mean velocity and most probable velocity of methane molecules at this temperature. ### Step 1: Convert the temperature of CO₂ from Celsius to Kelvin The temperature of CO₂ is given as 400°C. To convert this to Kelvin, we use the formula: \[ T(K) = T(°C) + 273 \] \[ ...
