q) Three closed vessels A,B and C are at the same temperature T and contain gases which obey the Maxwellian distrubution of velocities. Vessel A contains only O 2 , B only N 2 and C a mixture of equal quantities of O 2 ,and N 2 . If the average speed of the O 2 molecules in vessel A is V 1 ,that of the N 2 molecules in vessel B is V 2 , the average speed of O 2 molecules in vessel C is ...?

Average speed of molecule is given by -
V (max.) = √8kT/mπ
It will depend on the particle mass and temperature
Temperature will be same for all three vessels
Average velocity will be same for O2 in both of the vessels
So V1 will be the CORRECT ANSWER to given question.
