Answer: Hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed.

Explanation:

The formula for average speed is  :

\mu_{av}={\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi\times M}}}

R = gas constant  

T = temperature  

M = Molecular Mass

Now putting all the values:

\frac{\nu_{H_2}}{\nu_{O_2}}=\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi\times M_{H_2}}}/{\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi\times M_{O_2}}}

\frac{\nu_{H_2}}{\nu_{O_2}}=\sqrt{\frac{16}{2}}

\frac{\nu_{av}_{H_2}}{\nu_{av}_{O_2}}=8

Thus average speed of hydrogen is 8 times the average speed of oxygen. Thus hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed

What is the molarity of a 250.0 milliliter aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide that contains 15.5 grams of solute
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

There are a number of ways to express concentration of a solution. This includes molarity. Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. The concentration of the solution is calculated as follows:

 <span> </span><span>Molarity = 15.5 g NaOH (1 mol NaOH / 40 g NaOH)  / .250 L solution</span>

1. 17.0 grams of xenon hexafluoride is in a solid container. How many milliliters of that gas
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer: The volume of gas is 3020 ml

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 821.4 torr =  1.08 atm     (760 torr = 1atm)

V = Volume of gas in L = ?

n = number of moles = \frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{17.0g}{245.28g/mol}=0.069mol

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =302.7^0C=(302.7+273)K=575.7K

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

V=\frac{0.069mol\times 0.0821Latm/K mol\times 575.7K}{1.08atm}=3.02L=3020ml

Thus volume of gas is 3020 ml
