The average kinetic energy of \(\mathrm{H}_2\) molecules at \(300 \mathrm{~K}\) is \(E\). At the same temperature the average kinetic energy of \(\mathrm{O}_2\) molecule is
\(E\)
\(\frac{E}{4}\)
\(\frac{E}{16}\)
\(16 E\)
Solution
Average kinetic energy of \(\mathrm{H}_2\) molecules at
\(\begin{aligned}
300 \mathrm{~K} & =E \\
E & \propto T
\end{aligned}\)
Since,
Hence, at same temperature average kinetic energy of \(\mathrm{O}_2\) molecule will be same as \(E\).
