The average translational kinetic energy with which a gas molecule is endowed is dependent on its__________________?
Correct answer: C. Absolute temperature
- A. Nature
- B. Size
- C. Absolute temperature
- D. All A., B. & C.
Explanation
By kinetic theory, the average translational kinetic energy of gas molecules is proportional to absolute temperature, specifically 3RT/2 per mole. It does not depend on the gas molecule's nature or size.
