QJEEM23Ph0084: JEE Main 2023 Physics - Class 11 JEEM23Ph0084 Solution: A flask contains hydrogen and oxygen in the ratio of by mass at …

A flask contains hydrogen and oxygen in the ratio of 2:12: 1 by mass at temperature 27∘C27^{\circ} \mathrm{C} . The ratio of average kinetic energy per molecule of hydrogen and oxygen respectively is:

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 1:01
  • B 4:01
  • C 1:04
  • D 2:01

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

K.E. per molecule =(f2KT)= \left( {{f \over 2}KT} \right)

average(K.E)hydrogenaverage(K.E)oxygen=fhydrogenfoxygen=1{{\mathrm{average{{(K.E)}_{hydrogen}}}} \over {\mathrm{average{{(K.E)}_{oxygen}}}}} = {{{f_{\mathrm{hydrogen}}}} \over {{f_{\mathrm{oxygen}}}}} = 1
