Solution

The correct option is C 100%, zero
Argon is monoatomic gas. It has three degrees of freedom for translational motion and zero degree of freedom for rotational motion. Hence, heat is totally used to increase kinetic energy of translational motion only.
Hence, the correct answer is option (c).
