Q 1 :

A mixture of 2 moles of helium gas (atomic mass = 4 amu) and 1 mole of argon gas (atomic mass = 40 amu) is kept at 300 K in a container. The ratio of the rms speeds (vrms(helium)vrms(argon)) is                            [2012]

  • 0.32

     

  • 0.45

     

  • 2.24

     

  • 3.16

Using Vrms=3RTMVrms1M

Vrms(helium)Vrms(argon)=MargonMhelium=404=103.16
