If the rms velocity of hydrogen gas at a certain temperature is \(c,\) then the ras velocity of oxygen gas at the same temperature is

  1. A \(\frac{c}{8}\)
  2. B \(\frac{c}{10}\)
  3. C \(\frac{c}{4}\)
  4. D \(\frac{c}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{c}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(v_{\ln m}=\sqrt{\frac{3 R T}{M}}\) \(R=\) gas constant \(T=\) absolute temperature \(M=\) mass of gas \(v_{\text {rms }}\) of \(\mathrm{H}_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{3 R T}{M_{\mathrm{H}_{2}}}}\) \(v_{\text {rms }}\) of \(\mathrm{O}_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{3 R T}{M_{\mathrm{O}_{2}}}}\)…
