Statement 1: At the same temperature, SO₂ molecules move faster on average than CH₄ molecules.
Statement 2: The average kinetic energy per molecule, 3/2kT, is the same for all gases at a given temperature.
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
Statement II is correct. From 1/2mbarv² = 3/2kT, barv ∝ 1/√(M); SO₂ (M = 64) is heavier than CH₄ (M = 16), so SO₂ molecules are slower, not faster (barvSO₂ = 1/2barvCH₄). Statement I is incorrect. Ans: (d).
