A vessel of volume V contains a mixture of 1 mole of Hydrogen and 1 mole of Oxygen (both considered as ideal). Let f1(v)dv, denote the fraction of molecules with speed between v and (v + dv) with f2(v)dv, similarly for oxygen. Then
(a) f1(v) + f2(v) = f(v) obeys the Maxwell's distribution law
(b) f1(v), f2(v)will obey the Maxwell's distribution law separately
(c) Neither f1(v), nor f2(v) will obey the Maxwell's distribution law
(d) f2(v) and f1 (v) will be the same

(d) f2(v) and f1 (v) will be the same
This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(b) For a function f (v), the number of molecules n=f (v) which are having speeds between v and v+dv
So f1 (v) and f2 (v) will obey's maxwell distribution law
