A 1.0 mol sample of he(g) at 25 is mixed with a 1.0 mol sample of Xe(g) at 50 C. What would be the changes in average kineeteic energy and the average speed of the Xe atoms that will occur as the mixture approaches thermal equilibrium?

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy for an ideal gas is directly proportional to the temperature. The average kinetic energy of the gas is a measure of the temperature of the gas molecule

Also, the average speed is usually proportional to the square root of temperature.

Similarly, there is a noticeable increase in K.E and speed in regard to temperature but sometimes it is not usually proportional.

However, provided that there is more temperature in Xe as compared to He, then after the mixture of both takes place at equilibrium; the temperature tends to fluctuate between (25 - 50)°C

Thus, since there is a decrease in temperature in Xe, both the average kinetic energy as well as the speed too will also decrease.

the correct answer is:

a. formation of precipitation
