Chapter 5, Problem 5.124QP

If the rms speed of He atoms in the exosphere (highest region of the atmosphere) is 3.53 × 103 m/s, what is the temperature (in kelvins)?

There are two particles, one is heavy and the other is light. The light particles diffuse faster than the heavy particles. This relationship is known as Graham’s Law of Effusion. Since both gases are at the same temperature, they must have the same average kinetic energy (½ mv2), where m is mass and v is the velocity (like speed). Since both gases have the same average kinetic energy, you can state that ½ mLvL2 = ½ mHvH2. Multiplying both sides by 2 gives you mLvL2 = mHvH2. Rearranging the equation to get both masses on the same side of the equation will give you mL/mH = VH2/VL2. In 3a and 3b, you probably noticed that the heavy gas particles took twice as long to diffuse as the light gas particles. This means that the light gas particles are moving twice as fast, VH/VL = ½. Therefore, VH2/VL2 = ¼. How many times heavier is the heavy gas compared to the light gas?  If the light gas was Ne, what would be a reasonable identity for the heavy gas?
A student reacts 0.0975 g of magnesium with 5.00 mL of 3.00 M hydrochloric acid in a eudiometer (gas collection tube). Write a balanced equation for the reaction. What is the limiting reactant? What volume of hydrogen gas (in mL) does the student collect over water at 28.50°C and 778.1 mmHg?
At present, a typical temperature at the very top of the troposphere is −53.2°C. (a) Convert this temperature to the Kelvin scale
