  • A
    $\sqrt{11}: 3$
  • B
    $3: \sqrt{11}$
  • C

$A$ perfect gas of volume $10 \ L$ is compressed isothermally to a volume of $1 \ L$. The $rms$ speed of the molecules will

At temperature $T,$ the $r.m.s.$ speed of helium molecules is the same as the $r.m.s.$ speed of hydrogen molecules at normal temperature and pressure $(NTP)$. The value of $T$ is ....... $^\circ C$.

Three vessels of equal volume contain gases at the same temperature and pressure. The first vessel contains neon (monoatomic),the second contains chlorine (diatomic) and the third contains uranium hexafluoride (polyatomic). Arrange these on the basis of their root mean square speed $(v_{rms})$ and choose the correct answer from the options given below:

At room temperature,the $rms$ speed of a gas is $V_1$. If the pressure of the gas is doubled at the same room temperature,the $rms$ speed becomes $V_2$. Then:

The rms speed of oxygen is $v$ at a particular temperature. If the temperature is doubled and oxygen molecules dissociate into oxygen atoms, the rms speed becomes
