Question

How do you find the average kinetic energy from the motion of gas particles?

Answer 1

Calculate the average kinetic energy of a gas

The formula for the typical kinetic energy,

1. $\Rightarrow \mathrm{K}=\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{\mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{N}}\times \mathrm{T}$
2. Where $K$ is the average kinetic energy and the unit is Joule, $R$ is the gas constant, the value is $8.314$ and the unit is $Joule/mol\times K$, $N$ is Avogadro's number, the value is $6.022\times {10}^{23}$ and the unit is $atoms/mol$, and $T$ is the temperature and the unit is $Kelvin$.
3. The average energy contained in the motion of a gas's particles is known as average kinetic energy.
