Question

Maxwell's distribution curve for 1 mole of CH4 at 400 K
is similar to maxwell's distribution curve for 1 mole of
oxygen at​

Answer 1

Answer:

Total area under the two curves is independent of moles of gas.

This is because, the quantity on the Y axis includes the reciprocal of N.

Thus, the area under the curve gives fraction of molecules and total area is constant.

Hence, the option A is correct.

(B) The two areas are equal . Hence, the option B is correct.

(C) T

<T

2

. Hence, the option C is incorrect.

(D) As the temperature increases, the fraction of molecules with speed Umps decreases. Hence, the option D is correct.
