H2 Physics · JC 2 · Easy · Mean kinetic energy and temperature
In a laboratory, a student measures the temperature of an ideal gas sample to be 320 K. What is the average translational kinetic energy of one molecule of the gas? (Boltzmann constant k = 1.38 × 10⁻²³ J K⁻¹.)
- 6.6 × 10⁻²¹ J
- 4.4 × 10⁻²¹ J
- 3.3 × 10⁻²¹ J
- 9.6 × 10⁻²¹ J
