At a temperature of $314 \,K$ and a pressure of $100 \,kPa$, the speed of sound in a gas is $1380 \,ms^{-1}$. The radius of each gas molecule is $0.5 \,Å$. The frequency of sound at which the wavelength of the sound wave in the gas becomes equal to the mean free path of the gas molecules is (Boltzmann constant $k = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \,JK^{-1}$):

  • A
    $1000 \,MHz$
  • B
    $1000 \sqrt{2} \,MHz$
  • C
    $\frac{1000}{\sqrt{2}} \,MHz$
  • D
    $500 \,MHz$

An ideal gas in a closed container is slowly heated. As its temperature increases,which of the following statements are true?
$(A)$ The mean free path of the molecules decreases.
$(B)$ The mean collision time between the molecules decreases.
$(C)$ The mean free path remains unchanged.
$(D)$ The mean collision time remains unchanged.

An ideal gas is enclosed in a cylinder at a pressure of $2 \, atm$ and a temperature of $300 \, K$. The mean time between two successive collisions is $6 \times 10^{-8} \, s$. If the pressure is doubled and the temperature is increased to $500 \, K$,the mean time between two successive collisions will be close to:

$A$ real gas behaves like an ideal gas if its

The mean free path of molecules of a certain gas at $STP$ is $1500\,d$,where $d$ is the diameter of the gas molecules. While maintaining the standard pressure,the mean free path of the molecules at $373\,K$ is approximately $..........\,d$

The value of $C_p - C_v = 1.00 R$ for a gas in state $A$ and $C_p - C_v = 1.06 R$ in another state $B$. If $P_A$ and $P_B$ denote the pressure and $T_A$ and $T_B$ denote the temperature in the two states,then:
