Two monatomic ideal gases 1 and 2 of molecular masses

m_1

and

m_2

respectively are enclosed in separate containers kept at the same temperature. The ratio of the speed of sound in gas 1 to that in gas 2 is given by a.

\sqrt{\frac{m_1}{m_2}}

\sqrt{\frac{m_2}{m_1}}

\frac{m_1}{m_2}

\frac{m_2}{m_1}
