CBSEENPH11019847

At what temperature, pressure remaining same, will the r.m.s velocity of H2 gas molecules be double it's value at N.T.P?

Solution

Let CHt and CHO be the r.m.s velocity of H2 gas at a different temperature.
That is, 
fraction numerator straight C subscript straight H subscript straight t end subscript space over denominator straight C subscript straight H subscript straight O end subscript end fraction equals square root of fraction numerator straight t space plus space 273 over denominator 273 end fraction end root

rightwards double arrow space 2 space equals space square root of fraction numerator straight t space plus space 273 over denominator 273 end fraction end root

On space squaring space both space sides comma space

4 space equals space fraction numerator straight t space plus space 273 over denominator 273 end fraction

That space is comma space

1092 space minus space 273 space equals space straight t

rightwards double arrow space straight t space equals space 819 to the power of straight o space straight C space
