JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 12 . kinetic theory of gases

A flask contains argon and oxygen in the ratio of \(3: 2\) in mass and the mixture is kept at \(27^{\circ} C\). The ratio of their average kinetic energy per molecule respectively will be ...........

  1. A \(3: 2\)
  2. B \(9: 4\)
  3. C \(2: 3\)
  4. D \(3:5\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(3:5\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Average \(K.E./molecule=\frac{f}{2} k T\) So, \(\frac{K_{A r}}{K_{O_{2}}}=\frac{\frac{3}{2} k T}{\frac{5}{2} k T}=\frac{3}{5}\)
