Temperature of an ideal gas, initially at \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), is raised by \(6^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The rms velocity of the gas molecules will

  1. A increase by nearly \(2 \%\)
  2. B decrease by nearly \(2 \%\)
  3. C increase by nearly \(1 \%\)
  4. D decrease by nearly \(1 \%\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) increase by nearly \(1 \%\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Initial temperature of ideal gas, \[ T_{1}=273+27=300 \mathrm{K} \] when temperature of gas is raised by \(6^{\circ} \mathrm{C},\) the final temperature of gas \[ \begin{aligned} T_{2} &=273+6+27 \\ &=306 \mathrm{K} \end{aligned} \] Let initial velocities are \(v_{r m_{1}},\)…
