Assume that you have 40000 molecules of carbon dioxide in a box at a temperature of 300 K. Also, imagine if the speed distribution of the molecules is governed by the following function
N(v) = Ave(-Mv^2/2RT) instead of a Boltzmann distribution N(v) = Av2e(-Mv^2/2RT)
Normalize this function to solve for A. Also, solve for the vrms of the carbon dioxide gas.
[Use .044 kg/mol for the molar mass of carbon dioxide]
Group of answer choices
a) A = .706, Vrms = 348.25 m/s
b) A = .588, Vrms = 322.67 m/s
c) A = .822, Vrms = 348.25 m/s
d) A = .706, Vrms = 336.71 m/s
e) A = .588, Vrms = 336.71 m/s
