21. Kinetic Theory of Ideal Gases
Root-Mean-Square Velocity of Gases
Problem 18e
Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionAt what temperature is the root-mean-square speed of nitrogen molecules equal to the root-mean-square speed of hydrogen molecules at 20.0°C? (Hint: Appendix D shows the molar mass (in g/mol) of each element under the chemical symbol for that element. The molar mass of H2 is twice the molar mass of hydrogen atoms, and similarly for N2.)
