- smoke particles in air typically have masses of the order of 10^-16 kg. The rapid, irregular motions of these particles caused by collisions with air molecules can be observed with a microscope. Assume a particular type of smoke particle has a mass of 3.00 x10^-16 kg and is in a room with a temperature of 300 K. a) if instead you were considering a hydrogen gas molecule (m= 3.34x10^-26 kg) at 300 K, would the average translational kinetic energy be larger than, smaller than or equal to that of the smoke particle? b) would the rms speed of the hydrogen atom be larger than, smaller than, or equal to that of the smoke particle?arrow_forwardCompute the mean molecular speed v in the light gas hydrogen (H2) and the heavy gas radon (Rn), both at room temperature 293 K.
