- Unreasonable results. (a) Find the sped of hydrogen sulfide, H2S, molecules at a temperature of 250 K. Its molar mass is 31.4 g/mol (b) The result isn't very unreasonable, but why is it less reliable than those for, say, neon or nitrogen?arrow_forwardCheck Your Understanding If you consider a very small object, such as a grain of pollen, in a gas, then the number of molecules striking its surface would also be relatively small. Would you expect the grain of pollen to experience any fluctuations in pressure due to statistical fluctuations in the number of gas molecules striking it in a given amount of time?arrow_forwardNitrogen is released at one end of a pressure chamber of length 30 meters and takes 7 hours and 44 minutes to diffuse from one end of the chamber to the other.
