Calculate the average speed of an oxygen gas molecule O2 at 35.0 degrees Celsius?

The average speed of an oxygen gas molecule at 35.0 degrees Celsius can be calculated using the root-mean-square speed formula: vrms = √(3kT/m), where k is the Boltzmann constant, T is the temperature in Kelvin, and m is the molar mass of the gas. Given that the molar mass of O2 is about 32 g/mol, the average speed can be calculated once T is converted to Kelvin (308.15 K for 35.0 degrees Celsius).


Molecule of a substance are in a motion?

Molecules of a substance are in constant motion. Whether you have a solid, liquid, or gas, the particles are moving (but the speed and amount they move differs). Particles of a solid move the least (they basically vibrate), particles of a liquid can flow around one another, and particles of a gas have a lot of space between them because they move in random, constant motions.


What does this mean about enzyme molecules?

Molecule is the general term used to describe atoms connected by chemical bonds. Every combination of atoms is a molecule. Compounds happen with atoms from different elements. So, all compounds are molecules, because they have bonds between the atoms, like in water (H2O).


Why do oxygen molecules move slowly than hydrogen molecules at the same temperature?

Two gasses at the same temperature have the same amount of average kinetic energy per molecule. Since an oxygen molecule has about 16 times the mass of a hydrogen molecule, it must move faster than a hydrogen molecule with the same kinetic energy. This is based on the equation KE=1/2MV2


How does temperature affect the speed of molecular movement in matter?

Temperature directly affects the speed of molecular movement in matter. As temperature increases, the molecules gain more energy and move faster. Conversely, as temperature decreases, the molecules slow down. This relationship is described by the kinetic theory of matter.
