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

The rms speed of oxygen molecule in a vessel at particular temperature is \(\left(1+\frac{5}{x}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}} v\), where \(v\) is the average speed of the molecule. The value of \(x\) will be:(Take \(\pi=\frac{22}{7}\) )

  1. A \(28\)
  2. B \(27\)
  3. C \(8\)
  4. D \(4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(28\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\sqrt{\frac{3 RT }{ M }}=\left(1+\frac{5}{ x }\right)^{\frac{1}{2}} \sqrt{\frac{8 RT }{\pi M }}\) \(\Rightarrow \frac{3 \times 22}{7 \times 8}=1+\frac{5}{ x }\) \(\Rightarrow x =28\)
