d) From the values calculated in (c), label the Boltzmann distribution plot with the approximate locations of vmp, v avg, and vrms e) What will have a larger speed distribution, helium at 500 K or argon at 300 K? Helium at 300 K or argon at 500 K? Argon at 400 K or argon at 1000 K?
Only answer letters (d) and (e)
a) Using the Maxwell-Boltzmann function, calculate the fraction of argon gas molecules with a speed of 305 m/s at 500 K. (ans: 0.0014)
b) If the system in (a) has 0.46 moles of argon gas, how many molecules have the speed of 305 m/s? (ans: 6.44 x 10-4)
c) Calculate the values of vmp, vavg, and vrms for xenon gas at 298 K. (ans: Vmp=194.2 m/s , Vavg=219.2 m/s , Vrms=237.8 m/s)
d) From the values calculated in (c), label the Boltzmann distribution plot with the approximate locations of vmp, v avg, and vrms
e) What will have a larger speed distribution, helium at 500 K or argon at 300 K? Helium at 300 K or argon at 500 K? Argon at 400 K or argon at 1000 K?
