What is the pressure of oxygen if the mean square velocity of its molecules is 500 m / s and its density is 1.43 kg / m3?

Problem data: Vav (mean square velocity of oxygen molecules) = 500 m / s.

Reference values: according to the condition ρк (oxygen density) = 1.43 kg / m3.

The oxygen pressure can be determined by the formula: Р = ρк * Vср2 / 3.

Let’s make a calculation: P = ρk * Vav ^ 2/3 = 1.43 * 500 ^ 2/3 = 119167 Pa ≈ 119.2 kPa.

Answer: The oxygen pressure is 119.2 kPa.
