Question

The gases carbon-monoxide (CO) and nitrogen at the same temperature have kinetic energies `E_(1)` and `E_(2)` respectively. Then
A. `E_(1)=E_(2)`
B. `E_(1) gt E_(2)`
C. `E_(1) lt E_(2)`
D. None of these

Answer 1

Correct Answer - A
The gases carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen `(N_(2))` have equal translational kinetic energy `3/2kT,i.e,.E_(1)=E_(2^.)`
