Equal pressures  from the ideal gas equation (P = nRT/V) ... same moles, T and V... P must be the same. <span>Lighter gas has greater RMS speed .... KE = 1/2mv² mass and speed inversely proportional </span>
<span>Same KE .... all gases at same T have same KE </span>

The question is incomplete.


This is the complete question:


Consider equimolar samples of different ideal gases at the same volume and temperature. Gas A has a higher molar mass than gas B.


Compare the pressures. Compare the rms speeds. Compare the average kinetic energies.


Answer:


pressure: A = B

RMS: A < B

kinetic energies: A = B


Explanation:


1) Pressure:


You can deal with this part of the question on the basis of Avogaro's principle which stated that equal volumes of gases at same temperature and pressure have the same number of particles (molecules).


Also, kinetic theory of gases postulates that the particles of gas are quited separated and in consequence the volume occupied by the particles of a gas is meaningless and does not influence the total volume occupied by a fixed number of particles.


Also, you can use the equation of ideal gases pV = nRT, from which p = nRT/V. if n, T, and V are fixed, then p is fixed.


The three approaches leads to the same conclusion.


Then, pressure of gas A is equal to pressure of gas B.


2) RMS


RMS stands for root mean square speed.


It is the room mean square speed of the particles of a gas.


the RMS is related with the temperature of the gas and the molar mass per this equation:


RMS = √(3RT/M), where R is the universal constant of gases, T is the absolute temperature and M is the molar mass.


Then, the greater the molar mass, the lower the RMS, which permits you conclude that the RMS of gas A is less than the RMS of the gas B.


3) kinetic energy


Temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy.


Equal temperatures of the gas means equal kinetic energies.


The Kinetic Molecular Theory states that the average energy of molecules is proportional to absolute temperature.


So, you conclude that the same amount of gases, at the same temperature, contain equal kinetic energies.

The diagram below shows the collection of H2 gas over water at 25°C. The total pressure in the tube is 760.0 torr. What is the p
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: 736.2 torr

Explanation: According to Dalton's law, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of individual pressures exerted by the constituent gases.

p_{total}=p_A+p_B

Thus p_{total}=p_{H_2O}+p_{H_2}

Given: p_{total}=760 torr

p_{H_2O}=23.8torr

p_{H_2}= ?torr

Thus 760torr=23.8torr+p_{H_2}

p_{H_2}=736.2torr

Thus pressure exerted by the hydrogen gas alone is 736.2 torr.

Net ionic equations for potassium sulfate plus calcium phosphate yields
Temka [501]
Balanced chemical reaction:
3K₂SO₄(aq) + Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) → 2K₃PO₄(aq) + 3CaSO₄(s).
Ionic reaction: 
6K⁺(aq) + 3SO₄²⁻(aq) + Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) → 6K⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3CaSO₄(s).
Net ionic reaction: 3SO₄²⁻(aq) + Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) → 2PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3CaSO₄(s).
aq(aqueous) means dissolved in water.
s(solid) means that salt not dissolved in water.
This chemical reaction is double displacement reaction - cations and anions of the two reactants switch places and form two new compounds.
