Question

Let  v bar , v_rms and v_mp respectively denote the mean speed, root mean square speed and most probable speed of the molecules in an ideal monoatomic gas at absolute temperature T. The mass of a molecule is m. Then 

(a) No molecule can have speed greater than √2  v_rms

(b) No molecule can have speed less than v_mp/√2

(c) v_mp < v bar < v_rms

(d) The average kinetic energy of a molecule is 3/4mv²_mp

Answer 1

Correct Option (c) v_mp < v bar < v_{rms ,} (d) The average kinetic energy of a molecule is 3/4mv²_mp
