Question

A graph of Maxwell distribution of molecular velocities is plotted below.

Correct order of temperature (A) T 1> T 2> T 3 (B) T 1 < T 2 < T 3 (C) T 1= T 2> T 3 (D) T1=T2=T3

As temperature increases, most probable velocity also increases, although fraction of molecules having most probable velocity decreases. ∴ T3 > T2 > T1

Q. A graph of Maxwell distribution of molecular velocities is plotted below.

Correct order of temperature

$T_{1} > T_{2} > T_{3}$

$T_{1} < T_{2} < T_{3}$

$T_{1} = T_{2} > T_{3}$

$T_{1} = T_{2} = T_{3}$

As temperature increases, most probable velocity also increases, although fraction of molecules having most probable velocity decreases.
$∴ T_{3} > T_{2} > T_{1}$

Q. A graph of Maxwell distribution of molecular velocities is plotted below. Correct order of temperature

T1​>T2​>T3​

T1​<T2​<T3​

T1​=T2​>T3​

T1​=T2​=T3​
