Uranium has two isotopes U238 and U235.Enriched uranium,with a greater fraction of U235 required by nuclear reactors,is synthesized by first forming the compound UF6 in the gaseous form and then allowing it to pass through a porous medium.The two isotopes are then separated by diffusion which depends on the rms speeds of the molecules.Given the mass of a fluorine atom is 19 amu,masses of U235 and U238 atoms are 235.043924 amu and 238.050785 amu,respectively,the ratio of the rms speeds of the two uranium hexafluoride molecules is
A) 1.1000.
B) 1.0043.
C) 1.0420.
D) 1.0680.
E) 10.459.
