what is kinetic energy of the gas particles?

Open in App
Solution

Dear student!

The formula of kinetic energy (K.E ) = 1/2 mv2 , here in gas molecules the mass varies and so we find the average kinetic energy .

The average kinetic energy of gas particles are;

K.E = 3/2 kT (where k = Boltzmann constant and T = temperature)
