Question

Which of the following statements is/are wrong ?

• A. At a given temperature the transitional K.E. of one mole of every gas is same which is equal to $\frac{3}{2}RT$
• B. K.E. of a gas depends on its mass
• C. K.E. depends on the volume
• D. K.E. depends on the pressure

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C), (D)

K.E. depends on the pressure

According to kinetic theory of gases, At a given temperature the transitional K.E. of one mole of every gas is same which is equal to $\frac{3}{2}RT$ and kinetic theory of gases doesn't depend on molar mass, volume and pressure. So the correct answer is (b, c, d).
