Two flasks A and B have equal volumes. A is maintained at 300K and B at 600K. While A contains H2 gas, B has an equal mass of CH4 gas. Assuming ideal behaviour for the both gases. find the ratio of (uavg)A:(uavg)B.

Solution
Since (uavg)A=√8RTAπMA=√8R(300K)π(0.002kg mol−1) (uavg)B=√8RTBπMB=√8R(600K)π(0.016kg mol−1) therefore, (uavg)A(uavg)B=√3002×√16600=2
