Assertion (A) At 300 ~K , kinetic energy of 16 ~g of methane is equal to the kinetic energy of 32 g of oxygen. Reason (R) At constant temperature, kinetic energy of one mole of all gases is equal.
Options
- ABoth (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
- BBoth (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
- C(A) is true but (R) is not true
- D(A) is not true but (R) is true
Correct answer
A. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
Step-by-step solution
Kinetic energy for one mole gas is given by equation, aligned & E= 3 2 k T (where, k= Boltzman's constant) & E T aligned Thus at constant temperature kinetic energy of one mole of any gas is equal.
