Calculate the root mean square velocity of nitrogen molecules at 25°c. a) 729 m/s b) 515 m/s c) 149 m/s d) 297 m/s

root mean square velocity of nitrogen at 25°c is 515 m/s

correct option is b) 515 m/s

Explanation:

given data

temperature = 25°c = 25 + 273 = 298 K

to find out

root mean square velocity of nitrogen molecules

solution

we know that root mean square velocity of gas is Vrms =      .......................1

mass of gas = M

universal gas constant = R

temperature = T

and we know mass of nitrogen = 28 g = 28 × kg

Vrms =

Vrms =

Vrms = 515.22 m/s

root mean square velocity of nitrogen at 25°c is 515 m/s

correct option is b) 515 m/s

true
