A vessel of volume V contains a mixture of one mole of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen (both considered as ideal). Let f1(v)dv denote the fraction of molecules with speed between v and (v + dv) with f2(v)dv, similarly for oxygen. Then,
  1. \(f_{1}(v)+f_{2}(v)=f(v)\), obeys the Maxwell’s distribution law.
  2. \(f_{1}(v), f_{2}(v)\), obeys the Maxwell’s distribution law separately.
  3. Neither \(f_{1}(v)\)nor \(f_{2}(v)\)will obey the Maxwell’s distribution law.
  4. \(f_{2}(v)\)and\(f_{1}(v)\) will be the same.

Answer

(B) f_ 1 (v), f_ 2 (v) , obeys the Maxwell’s distribution law separately.
