A mixture of 2 moles of helium gas (` (atomic mass)=4a.m.u` ) and 1 mole of argon gas ( `(atomic mass)=40a.m.u` ) is kept at 300K in a container. The ratio of the rms speeds `((v_(rms)(helium))/((v_(rms)(argon))` is

A

`3.16`

B

`0.45`

C

`2.24`

D

`0.32`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`V_(" ms) propto sqrt((T)/(m))`. For same temperature, `V_(ms) propto (1)/(sqrt(m)) implies ((V_ms)(" helim "))/(V_(ms)(" argon "))= sqrt((m(" argon "))/(m(" helim ")))= sqrt((40)/(4))= sqrt(10) approx 3.16`
