Question
Which of the following gases would have the highest R.M.S. velocity at 25ºC ?
Answer: D
💡 Solution & Explanation
3 rms RT V M (a) MW of 2 O 32 (b) MW of 2 CO 44 (c) MW of 2 SO 64 (d) MW of CO 28 As, root mean square velocity is inversely proportional to molecular weight. Hence, (d) would be the correct option.
