At stp, the ratio of the root-mean-square speed of co2 to that of so2 is a. 1.207 b. 2.001 c. 1.000 d. 1.456 e. 2.119

The formula for the root mean square velocity is:

Vrms = √(3RT/M)

R = universal gas constant
T = temperature
M = molar mass

In this instance, R and T will be equal when comparing the two gases. The molar mass of CO2 = 44 g/mol and SO2 = 64 g/mol. We simply fill in the Vrms for each gas and take the ratio:

Vrms(CO2) = √(3RT/44)
Vrms(SO2) = √(3RT/64)

Vrms(CO2)/Vrms(SO2) = √(3RT/44) /√(3RT/64)
Vrms(CO2)/Vrms(SO2) = √(3RT/44) · √(64/3RT)
Vrms(CO2)/Vrms(SO2) = √64/√44
Vrms(CO2)/Vrms(SO2) = 1.207

The ratio of root-mean-square of CO2 to SO2 is 1.207.

If a hydrogen atom is neutral, it must also have  one electron. an oxygen atom (o) has an atomic number of eight (8). this means a neutral oxygen atom has eight protons and eight electrons. the element actium (ac) has an atomic number of 89, so it has 89 protons and 89 electrons in a neutral atom
