A vessel of volume V contains a mixture of 1 mole of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen (both considered as ideal). Let f 1 (v)dv denote the faction of molecules with speed between v and (v + dv) with f 2 (v)dv, similarly for oxygen. Then
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
The Maxwell – Boltzmann speed distribution functions 
depends on the mass of the gas molecule. [Here, dN is the number of molecules with speeds between v and (v + dv)]. The masses of hydrogen and oxygen molecules are different.
