Options 1 is right answer. Because in relation, 3RT/M so H2 have the lowest mass among all options.

Option C is not an answer.
N2 (dinitrogen) is very stable with triple bonding.
Hence, given option a is the correct answer.

At high temperatures, gases diffuse faster in the air.

Hydrogen will have the highest speed by the formula of root mean square velocity = square root of 3RT/ M.

According to me, the given answer A is correct.

I agree with @Jeffrin.
V is directly proportional to T.
With the decrease in temperature, attraction between the hydrogen molecules take place which will limit the movements of particles. This leads to decrease in kinetic energy which results in less speed of molecules. Thus, option A is incorrect.

Guys, please take a closer look in option A.
The temp is of a negative sign (-73).
All of us knows that the speed of the gas is directly proportional to temp.
If the temp is very low then how can the speed increase even though it has a low mass?

I think option B because at higher temperature the gas molecules having more kinetic energy.

Speed depends on temp and molecular mass, hence by the formula 3rt/m H2 is the answer.

Option A is correct because speed of molecule is inversely proportional to the mass of an atom, as hydrogen has lowest atomic no and atomic mass. Hence it can have highest speed of flowing.
