Question

What is the ratio between rms speed and most probable speed of gases at given temperature?

Answer 1

Answer:

√3:√2 is the ratio between rms speed and most probable speed of gases at given temperature

Answer 2

Answer:

The ratio between the root-mean-square speed and most probable speed will be,

$v(rms) = \sqrt{ \frac{3RT}{M} } \\ v(mps) = \sqrt{ \frac{2RT}{M} } \\ \\ so \: \frac{v(rms)}{v(mps)} = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{2} }$
