That really does depend on the aircrafts weight ( fuel and passengers or cargo ) and the actual type of aircraft being flown ( a Antonov may hit the tarmac at around 230 kts where as an Embraer my touch down at only 110 kts Approaches are usually flown at around 170-200 knots (again depending on the things mentioned above) Expect to be travelling at around 150-170 knots when you touch down
