Explanation

3. Average translation K.E. at any temperature T is given by K.E.av=32 kT  (k = Boltzmann's constant)

    This is same for all gases at same temperature.

The average translational energy and the r.m.s. speed of molecules in a sample of oxygen gas at 300 K are 6.21×10-21 J and 484 m/s respectively. The corresponding values at 600 K are nearly (assuming ideal gas behaviour)

Explanation

4. We know that average translation K.E. of a molecules =32 kT 

    At average K.E.=6.21×10-21 J

    At 600 K, average K.E.=2×6.21×10-21

                                              =12.42×10-21 J

    We know that vrms=3kTm 

    At 300K, vrms=484 m/s

    At 600K, vrms=2×484=684 m/s

At 0 K which of the following properties of a gas will be zero

Explanation

1. At  T=0K, vrms=0

A gas mixture consists of molecules of type 1, 2 and 3, with molar masses m1>m2>m3. Vrms and K¯ are the r.m.s. speed and average kinetic energy of the gases. Which of the following is true

Explanation

1. Vrms1M  Vrms1<Vrms2<Vrms3 also in mixture temperature of each gas will be same, hence

    kinetic energy also remains same.

Two ideal gases at absolute temperature T1 and T2 are mixed. There is no loss of energy. The masses of the molecules are m1 and m2 and the number of molecules in the gases are n1 and n2 respectively. The temperature of mixture will be

Explanation

3. According to law of conservation of energy 

       E=E1+E2       f2n1+n2kT        =f2n1kT1+f2n2kT2        T=n1T1+n2T2n1+n2

The molecules of an ideal gas at a certain temperature have

Explanation

2. There is no inter molecular force in ideal gas therefore P.E. = 0 and molecules have only kinetic energy.

Mean kinetic energy per degree of freedom of gas molecules is
