Heat and Thermodynamics 4 Question 26

28. The average translational energy and the rms speed of molecules in a sample of oxygen gas at 300K are 6.21×1021J and 484m/s respectively. The corresponding values at 600K are nearly (assuming ideal gas behaviour)

(1997, 1M)

(a) 12.42×1021J,968m/s

(b) 8.78×1021J,684m/s

(c) 6.21×1021J,968m/s

(d) 12.42×1021J,684m/s

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. The average translational KE=32kT which is directly proportional to T, while rms speed of molecules is given by

vrms=3RTM i.e. vrmsT

When temperature of gas is increased from 300K to 600K (i.e. 2 times), the average translational KE will increase to 2 times and rms speed to 2 or 1.414 times.

Average translational KE =2×6.21×1021J

and

=12.42×1021J

vrms=(1.414)(484)m/s684m/s
