calculate the root mean square velocity of F2,Cl2 and Br2 at 302k.

OpenStudy (frostbite):

You can derive an expression for the room mean square speed of the molecules only depending on their molecular mass and temperature from the maxwell-boltzmann distribution (among others). The relation is given by: \[\large v=\left( \frac{ 3RT }{ M } \right)^{1/2}\] \(R\) is the gas constant, \(T\) the absolute temperature and \(M\) the molar mass. The equation builds on the approximation that the gas behaves as a perfect gas.
