Concept explainers
(a).
Interpretation:
(i) The root-mean-square speeds and average kinetic energies of the Helium both compared.
(ii) The frequency and force has to be compared.
(b).
(i) The frequency and force of helium has to be compared.
(ii) The frequency and force has to be compared.
(c) The given statement valid
(a)
Concept Introduction:
Root mean-square speed is the parameter to measure the speed of particles in a gas. M is the molecular mass of the molecule at temperature T, root mean-square speed (
(b).
Concept Introduction:
The main usefulness of the idea is in the study of the standard impact force during collisions. Used for collisions, the mass and change in velocity are often willingly measured, other than the force during the collision is not.
(c).
Concept Introduction:
Root mean-square speed is the parameter to measure the speed of particles in a gas. M is the molecular mass of the molecule at temperature T, root mean-square speed (

What is the ratio of the root mean square speeds, urms, of the two gases?arrow_forwardYou have an equimolar mixture of the gases SO2 and O2, along with some He, in a container fitted with a piston. The density of this mixture at STP is 1.924 g/L. Assume ideal behavior and constant temperature and pressure. a. What is the mole fraction of He in the original mixture? b. The SO2 and O2 react to completion to form SO3. What is the density of the gas mixture after the reaction is complete?arrow_forward
