 #4 Q5

5- The plots of two gases at STP are shown below. One of the gases is 1.0L of helium, and the other
is 1.0L of bromine. Which plot corresponds to each gas and why?
В
Speed (m/s)
A. Curve A is helium and curve B is bromine because helium has a smaller molar mass
than bromine
B. Curve A is helium and curve B is bromine because the average kinetic energy of
bromine is greater than the average kinetic energy of helium
C. Curve A is bromine and curve B is helium because helium has a smaller molar mass
than bromine
D. Curve A is bromine and curve B is helium because the average kinetic energy of
bromine is greater than the average kinetic energy of helium
