The average speed of an oxygen molecule is 6.14 x 104 cm/sec at a certain temperature. What is the average speed of a CO2 molecule at the same temperature? (molar mass O2 = 31.9988; CO2 = 44.0098)

the average speed of is 5.24 ×  104 cm/s

Explanation:

The computation of the average speed of a is as follows:

where,

M = Molar mass

Given that

The molar mass of oxygen i.e. (MO_2) = 31.9988 g/mol

And, the molar mass of CO_2 is  44.0098 g/mol

Now

Now place these values to the above formula

So,

V_av CO_2 is 5.24 ×  104 cm/s

hence, the average speed of is 5.24 ×  104 cm/s

> b takes place in the gas phase in an isothermal tubular reactor. the feed is one mole of a per one mole of c, an inert. the entering temperature and pressure are 427°c and 10 atm, respectively. the gas constant r = 0.08206 atm · l/mol · k.
