Homework Statement
Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of an oxygen molecule (molecular mass 32)in air at room temperture.
Homework Equations
P = h/ [tex]\lambda[/tex]
P= mv
E= hv = 1/2mv[tex]^{2}[/tex] = P[tex]^{2}[/tex]/(2m)
The Attempt at a Solution
hv = 1/2mv[tex]^{2}[/tex]
h = 1/2mv
If v = P/m then h = mp/2m
so p= 2h
This doesn't seem correct to me... help?
