Chapter 16, Problem 16A.3AE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The thermal conductivity of the argon gas is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Thermal conductivity is the term that is related to the ability to conduct the heat.  The mean free path of the gas is inversely proportional to the pressure of a gas and number density of the gas is directly proportional to the pressure of a gas.  The product of number density and mean free path is there in the expression of thermal conductivity, therefore, the thermal conductivity is independent of the pressure of the gas.
