Correct Answer - Option 4 :
\(\sqrt 3 \sim 2\sqrt 2 \sim \sqrt 2 \)
Concept:
- The gaseous particles are in continuous motion with each other.
- There are three measure parameters to measure speed of the gas.
Root - mean - square velocity of Gaseous particles:
Root mean square velocity (RMS value) is the square root of the mean of squares of the velocity of individual gas molecules. It is given by
\(\Rightarrow {V_{rms}} = \sqrt{ {\frac{{3RT}}{M}} }\)
Average velocity:
It is the arithmetic mean of the velocities of different molecules of a gas at a given temperature. It is given by
\({V_{av}} = √ {\frac{{8RT}}{{\pi M}}}\)
Most probable velocity:
It is the velocity possessed by maximum fraction of molecules at the same temperature. It is given by
\({V_p} = √ {\frac{{2RT}}{M}} \)
Explanation:
The required ratio between these parameters are
\(√ {\frac{{3RT}}{M}} \;\;:√ {\frac{{8RT}}{{\pi M}}\;} \;:√ {\frac{{2RT}}{M}} \)
By Canceling all constant terms from the above expression we have
√3 : √8 ; √2
Or
√3 : 2√2 ; √2
So, the correct option is √3 : 2√2 ; √2
