Question

According to kinetic theory of gases, ideal gases have

• A. translational kinetic energy
• B. rotational kinetic energy
• C. vibrational kinetic energy
• D. all of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A translational kinetic energy

According to kinetic theory of gases, we assume that molecules of an ideal gas travel in a straight path between two points and don't rotate about their axis.
Thus, the molecules have only translational kinetic energy.
