At the room temperature the velocity of sound in `O_(2)` gas is v. Then in mixture of `H_(2)` and `O_(2)` gas the speed of sound at same temperature :-

A

will be less than v

B

wil be more than v

C

will be equal to v

D

nothing can be said

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`v=sqrt((gammaRT)/(M))rArr M_(H_(2)+O_(2))lt M_(O_(2)):.V_(H_(2+O_(2)))gt V_(O_(2))`
