The escape speed from the Earth is 1.12 x 104 ms-1, so that a gas molecule travelling away from the earth near the boundary of the earth's atmosphere would, at this speed,
be able to escape from the earth's gravitational field and can be lost from the
atmosphere. At what temperature is the rms speed of oxygen molecules, and helium
atoms equal to Vrms = 1.12 x 104 ms-t? [Use the periodic table to help you
