The correct option is C obeys Maxwell's distribution.
Law of equipartition of energy.
According to the law of equipartition of energy, for any dynamic system in thermal equilibrium, the total energy for the system is equally divided among the degree of freedom.
Translational kinetic energy
KT=32kT .....(i)
Rotational kinetic energy,
KR=2(12KT) .....(ii)
Therefore, translational kinetic energy and rotational kinetic energy both obey Maxwell’s distribution independent of each other.
On dividing these two equations, we get
KRKT=(KT)32KT
KR=23KT
Rotational energy at a given temperature is (23)rd of translational KE of each molecule.
Final Answer: (a), (d).
