MCQ
Calculate the value of mean free path $(\lambda)$ for oxygen molecules at temperature $27^{\circ}\, C$ and pressure $1.01 \times 10^{5} \,Pa$. Assume the molecular diameter $0.3 \,nm$ and the gas is ideal. $\left( k =1.38 \times 10^{-23}\, J\,K ^{-1}\right)$ (in $nm$)
  • A
    $58$
  • B
    $32$
  • C

  • $102$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$102$
d
$\lambda=\frac{ RT }{\sqrt{2} \pi d ^{2} N _{ A } P }$

$\lambda=102\, nm$
