What is the speed of sound (in m/s) in carbon dioxide at the normal boiling temperature of water?

Question

What is the speed of sound (in m/s) in carbon dioxide at the normal boiling temperature of water?

Answer 1

speed of sound in gas

v = sqrt (r R T /m)

T is temperature in Kelvin. = 373k

R is Boltzman constant = 8.31

r is heat capacity ratio. which is 1.281 at 100 degree.

m is molecular mass. You will need to look up the periodic table. Atomic mass of one carbon + two oxygen
