Typical electronic energy gaps in molecules are about 1.0eV. In terms of temperature, the gap is closest to:
At what temperature does the rms speed of oxygen molecules equal the escape velocity of - (i) Earth, (ii) the Moon? The gravitational acceleration of the Moon is 0.6g.
At what temperature does the rms speed of oxygen molecules equal the escape velocity of - (i) Earth, (ii) the Moon? Assume gravitational acceleration at the moon is 0.6g.
