Question

The average kinetic energy of the particles of a gas is most closely associated with which of the following quantity?

• A. heat capacity.
• B. temperature.
• C. specific heat.
• D. absolute zero.
• E. potential enemy.

Answer 1

The correct option is B temperature.

Average kinetic energy of the particle $K_{avg}=\frac{3}{2}{k}_{B}T$ where $T$ is the temperature

Thus option B is correct.
