A sample of an ideal gas is in a tank of constant volume. The sample absorbs heat energy so that its temperature changes from 33

5 K to 1340 K. If v1 is the average speed of the gas molecules before the absorption of heat and v2 their average speed after the absorption of heat, what is the ratio v2

Answer:

The ratio of v₂/v₁ is 2

Explanation:

Here we have Charles law which can be presented as

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Therefore,

P₂ = T₂ × P₁/T₁

Also from the kinetic theory of gases we have;

v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times R\times T}{MW} }

Where:

v_{rms} = Rms speed

R = Universal gas constant

T = Temperature in Kelvin

MW = Molecular weight

We therefore have for the before and after speeds as

v_1 = \sqrt{\frac{3\times R\times T_1}{MW} } and v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{3\times R\times T_2}{MW} }

Therefore,  

\frac{v_2}{v_1 } = \frac{\sqrt{\frac{3\times R\times T_2}{MW} }}{\sqrt{\frac{3\times R\times T_1}{MW} }}  = \sqrt{\frac{\frac{3\times R\times T_2}{MW}}{\frac{3\times R\times T_1}{MW}} }  = \sqrt{\frac{T_2}{T_1} }

\frac{v_2}{v_1 } = \sqrt{\frac{T_2}{T_1} } = \sqrt{\frac{1340}{335} } =\sqrt{\frac{4}{1} } = 2

∴ v₂/v₁ = 2.

Answer:

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=2.

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy per molecule of a ideal gas is given by:

\bar{K}=\frac{3k_{B}T}{2}

Now, we know that \bar{K} = (1/2)m\bar{v}^{2}

Before the absorption we have:

(1/2)m\bar{v_{1}}^{2}=\frac{3k_{B}T_{1}}{2} (1)

After the absorption,

(1/2)m\bar{v_{2}}^{2}=\frac{3k_{B}T_{2}}{2} (2)

If we want the ratio of v2/v1, let's divide the equation (2) by the equation (1)

\frac{v_{2}^{2}}{v_{1}^{2}}=\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}}

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{1340}{335}}

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=\sqrt{4}

Therefore the ratio will be \frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=2

I hope it helps you!

Define speed and what is it’s SI unit.
Nadusha1986 [10]
Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. ... Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour........?
