One mole of H₂ and one mole of O₂ are taken in a vessel. Which of the following statements are correct?

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
B, C, D
Solution:

Equal moles at the same V and T give equal partial pressures, so (a) is false. Both gases have the same average kinetic energy per molecule; the lighter H₂ has the greater average speed (b) and hits the walls more often (c). Momentum transfer per collision scales as m·v ~ sqrt(mT), so the heavier O₂ molecule applies more average force per collision (d). Hence (b), (c), (d).
