Kinetic Theory Of Gases Question 55

Question: The average translational kinetic energy of $ O _{2} $ (relative molar mass 32) molecules at a particular temperature is 0.048 eV. The translational kinetic energy of $ N _{2} $ (relative molar mass 28) molecules in eV at the same temperature is

Options:

A) 0.0015

B) 0.003

C) 0.048

D) 0.768

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

[c] Average translational kinetic energy of an ideal gas molecule is $ \frac{3}{2}kT $ which depends on temperature only

Therefore, if temperature is same, translational kinetic energy of $ O _{2} $ and $ N _{2} $ both will be equal.
