Mean Free Path & Real Gases question from NEET 2020 (Phase 2)

Q16NEET 2020 · PHASE 2Easy

Mean Free Path & Real Gases

The mean free path $\ell$ for a gas molecule depends upon diameter, $d$ of the molecule as

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

Mean free path: $\ell = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}\,n\pi d^2}$
So $\ell \propto \dfrac{1}{d^2}$ ; the answer is (b).
