The average translational kinetic energy of gas molecules depends on
-
Temperature only
- Number of moles and temperature
- Pressure and temperature
- Pressure only
The correct answer is: A
Explanation
Temperature only.
This means that the average kinetic energy is directly related to the gas's absolute temperature. The relationship can be defined by the equation:
K.E = \(\frac{3}{2}\)kT
where K.E = average kinetic energy, k = Boltzmann's constant, and T = absolute temperature.
