Check Your Understanding If you consider a very small object, such as a grain of pollen, in a gas, then the number of molecules striking its surface would also be relatively small. Would you expect the grain of pollen to experience any fluctuations in pressure due to statistical fluctuations in the number of gas molecules striking it in a given amount of time?
Using a numerical integration method such as Simpson's rule, find the fraction of molecules in a sample of oxygen gas at a temperature of 250 K that have speeds between 100 m/s and 150 m/s. The molar mass of oxygen (O2) is 32.0 g/mol. A precision to two significant digits is enough.
It might seem more natural to give the average speed rather than vrms, but vrms followsmore directly from specific equations. To compute the root of the mean of the squares(rms speed), we square each molecular speed, add, divide by the number of molecules,and take the square root to get vrms.Five gas molecules have speeds of 500, 600, 700, 800, and 900 m/s.
