Maxwell-Boltzmann for a redox reaction

Built for engineers using it for real design work. Go from concept to a running model in the browser, then scale to the cloud when needed. Simulate a redox reaction live below — adjust the inputs and watch it respond, right in your browser.

Maxwell–Boltzmann DistributionLive

molecular speeds in a gas

Controls

Gas molecules do not all move at one speed — they spread into this distribution. Heat the gas or lighten the molecule and the curve broadens and shifts faster.

Governing equation

f (v) = 4 π (\frac{m}{2 π k T})^{3/2} v^{2} e^{- m v^{2} /2 k T}, v_{p} = \frac{2 k T}{m} = 0 m/s at T = 300 K

Reading this result: The peak (v_mp 0 m/s) sits below the average and RMS speeds because the long high-speed tail pulls those means upward.
