MCQ
The average thermal energy for a mono$-$atomic gas is : $\left( k _{ B }\right.$ is Boltzmann constant and $T ,$ absolute $e$. temperature)
  • A
    $\frac{7}{2} k _{ B } T$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2} k _{ B } T$
  • $\frac{3}{2} k _{ B } T$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{2} k_{B} T$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\frac{3}{2} k _{ B } T$
c
Average thermal energy $=\frac{3}{2} K _{ B }\, T$

where $3$ is translational degree of freedom For monoatomic gas total degree of freedom

$f =3$ (translational degree of freedom)
