Question

For Oat 1 atm and 298 K, what fraction of molecules has a speed between 200. and 300. m/sec?  What is this fraction if the gas temperature is 500K? 

For O2 at 1 atm and 298 K, what fraction of molecules has a speed that is greater than vmp? vave? vrms?

 

Use a spread sheet to calculate these values.  For the fraction between 200 and 300, calculate two ways, just using the values at 200 and 300 and then by using the values from 200, 201, 202 ….298, 299, 300.  Compare these answers.

 

For the fraction of molecules with a speed that is greater than vmp, vave, and vrms use the size of interval that you feel is appropriate.  Compare these fractions.
