NEET Physics RMS Speed Assertion Reason Question
A gas mixture consists of molecules of A, B and C with masses mₐ > m_b > m_c at a fixed temperature. Statement 1: Rms speed order is (v_rms)_c > (v_rms)_b > (v_rms)_a. Statement 2: Average Kinetic energy order is K_c > K_b > K_a.
Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is false.
Statement 1 is False, Statement 2 is True.
Both Statements are True.
Both statements are False.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Rms speed is inversely proportional to the square root of mass, while average kinetic energy is the same for all gases at the same temperature.
