Average velocity =√8RTπM
and most probable velocity =√2RTM
Given - for CO2
Average velocity at T1= Most probable velocity at T2
9×104 cm/sec=9×104100 m/sec
=9×102 m/sec
∴9×102=√8×8.314×T13.14×44×10−3…(A) [Average velocity at T1K]
and
9×102=√2×8.314×T244×10−3…(B) [Most probable velocity at T2K]
On solving, T1=1682.5 K, T2=2143.4 K
