Question
If most probable velocity is represented by ′a′ and fraction possessing it by ′f′, then with increase in temperature which one of the following is correct ?
Options
A.a increases, f decreases
B.a decreases, f increases
C.both a & f decrease
D.both a & f increase
Solution

f′ < f
a′ > a
f = fraction of molecules posessing velocity (V)
a = most probable velocity.
