Chapter 10, Problem 62E

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The gas with highest kinetic energy among ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{,}{\text{N}}_2$, and ${\text{O}}_2$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Kinetic theory of gases assumed gas as a combination of large number of particles that are constantly in motion. These particles were constantly colliding with each other. Kinetic theory of gases is used to study macroscopic properties of gases.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The gas with lowest kinetic energy among ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{,}{\text{N}}_2$, and ${\text{O}}_2$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Kinetic theory of gases assumed gas as a combination of large number of particles that are constantly in motion. These particles were constantly colliding with each other. Kinetic theory of gases is used to study macroscopic properties of gases.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The fastest moving molecules among the ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{,}{\text{N}}_2$, and ${\text{O}}_2$ are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Kinetic theory of gases assumed gas as a combination of large number of particles that are constantly in motion. These particles were constantly colliding with each other. Kinetic theory of gases is used to study macroscopic properties of gases.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The slowest moving molecules among the ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{,}{\text{N}}_2$, and ${\text{O}}_2$ are to be stated.
