Determine the rms speed of the oxygen molecules

Reference no: EM13553079

A syringe of volume 20.0 ml has just been used and now lies empty on the doctor\'s desk. The pressure in the office is 100,000 Pa. Assume that the air is an ideal gas consisting of nitrogen N2(80%) and oxygen O2(20%) molecules. k=1.38×10-23J/K and the molar mass of oxygen is 32 g/mol.

The syringe must be heated to high temperatures to sterilize it. When the syringe is at its maximum temperature, the number of oxygen molecules is 6.5 x 1019(but the pressure, volume, and percent oxygen remain the same), what is the rms speed of the oxygen molecules?
