The root mean square speed of gas molecules is proportional to:
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
From kinetic theory, rms speed v_rms = √(3RT/M), where R is gas constant, T absolute temperature, M molar mass. Thus v_rms ∝ √T. This shows molecular speed increases with temperature but not linearly. Memory aid: 'Kinetic energy ∝ T; KE = ½mv² ⇒ v ∝ √T'. This conceptual question tests kinetic theory understanding, frequently examined in thermodynamics sections of competitive exams. Always use absolute temperature (Kelvin) in gas law calculations; Celsius would give incorrect proportionality.
