Consider a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen kept at room temperature, As compared to a hydrogen molecule an oxygen molecule hits the wall

A

With greater average speed

B

With smaller average speed

C

With greater average kinetic energy

D

With smaller average kinetic energy.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
` V_(av) prop (1)/(sqrt(M_0)) `
` therefore ` Oxygen molecule hits the wall with smaller average speed
