Problem

A mixture contains nitrogen gas (N2\text{N}_2, molar mass 28 g mol⁻¹) and an unknown monatomic noble gas at the same temperature. Measurements show that the root-mean-square speed of the nitrogen molecules is 1.25 times that of the unknown gas atoms. Determine the molar mass of the unknown gas.
