The r.m.s. speed of gas molecules at 800 K will be

  1. A same as at 200 K
  2. B twice the value at 200 K
  3. C four times the value at 200 K
  4. D half the value at 200 K
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) twice the value at 200 K

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(v_{rms} \propto \sqrt{T}\) \(\frac{v_{rms, 800K}}{v_{rms, 200K}} = \sqrt{\frac{800 \text{ K}}{200 \text{ K}}}\)
