The molecular velocity of any gas is

A

inversely proportional to the square root of temperature

B

inversely proportional to absolute temperature

C

directly proportional to square of temperature

D

directly proportional to square root of temperature

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Molecular velocity can be average velocity `=sqrt((8RT)/(pi M))`, root mean square velocity `=sqrt((3RT)/(M))` most probable velocity `= sqrt((2RT)/(M))`. In all cases molecular velocity `propto sqrt(T)`.
