The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the temperature at which the root mean square (RMS) speed of a gas becomes double its value at 0 degrees Celsius, while keeping the pressure constant. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the relationship between RMS speed and temperature**: The root mean square speed (Vrms) of a gas is given by the formula: \[ V_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3RT}{m}} \] where \(R\) is the universal gas constant, \(T\) is the absolute temperature in Kelvin, and \(m\) is the molar mass of the gas. 2. **Identify the initial conditions**: At 0 degrees Celsius, the temperature in Kelvin is: \[ T_1 = 0 + 273 = 273 \text{ K} \] Let's denote the RMS speed at this temperature as \(V\): \[ V_{rms}(T_1) = V \] 3. **Set up the equation for the final condition**: We need to find the temperature \(T_f\) at which the RMS speed becomes double: \[ V_{rms}(T_f) = 2V \] 4. **Express the RMS speed at the final temperature**: From the formula, we can express the RMS speed at the final temperature: \[ V_{rms}(T_f) = \sqrt{\frac{3RT_f}{m}} \] 5. **Relate the two conditions**: Since \(V_{rms}(T_1) = \sqrt{\frac{3R \cdot 273}{m}} = V\) and \(V_{rms}(T_f) = \sqrt{\frac{3RT_f}{m}} = 2V\), we can set up the following relationship: \[ 2V = \sqrt{\frac{3RT_f}{m}} \] 6. **Square both sides**: Squaring both sides gives: \[ (2V)^2 = \frac{3RT_f}{m} \] Therefore: \[ 4V^2 = \frac{3RT_f}{m} \] 7. **Substituting for \(V^2\)**: From the initial condition, we have: \[ V^2 = \frac{3R \cdot 273}{m} \] Substituting this into our equation gives: \[ 4 \left(\frac{3R \cdot 273}{m}\right) = \frac{3RT_f}{m} \] 8. **Cancel out common terms**: The \( \frac{3R}{m} \) cancels out from both sides: \[ 4 \cdot 273 = T_f \] Thus: \[ T_f = 1092 \text{ K} \] 9. **Convert to Celsius**: Finally, to convert the temperature from Kelvin to Celsius: \[ T_f (\text{°C}) = T_f (\text{K}) - 273 = 1092 - 273 = 819 \text{ °C} \] ### Final Answer: The temperature at which the root mean square speed of the gas becomes double its value at 0 degrees Celsius is \(819 \text{ °C}\). ---
