MCQ
The atomic masses of $He$ and $Ne$ are 4 and $20 \ a.m.u$., respectively. The value of the de Broglie wavelength of He gas at $-73^{\circ} C$ is $"M"$ times that of the de Broglie wavelength of $Ne$ at $727^{\circ} C$. $M$ is
  • A
    $3$
  • B
    $4$
  • $5$
  • D
    $6$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$5$
c
$\lambda=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2 m ( KE )}} \quad KE \propto T $

$\frac{\lambda_{ He }}{\lambda_{ Ne }}=\sqrt{\frac{ m _{ Ne } KE _{ Ne }}{ m _{ He } KE _{ He }}}=\sqrt{\frac{20 \times 1000}{4 \times 200}}=5 .$
