Solution

Internal energy

  • The total of the kinetic energies of the particles in an ideal gas is its internal energy.
  • According to the kinetic molecular theory, a gas's temperature is proportional to the average kinetic energy of its particles.

Maximum internal energy at 290K

  • Ozone has a positive or negative impact on life on Earth depends on its location in the atmosphere.
  • It is a geological and fella material that appears in the top atmosphere.
  • Gas internal energy=fnRT2.
  • Here f denotes the number of degrees of freedom, n is the number of moles, R is a gas constant and T is the temperature.
  • A gas's internal energy is propositional to degree of freedom.
  • The degree of freedom of a gas is proportional to its atomicity.
  • As a result, the internal energy is proportional to the atomicity of a gas at a given temperature.
  • The ozone has the highest atomicity, which is three, compared to Neon gas, and nitrogen gas, which have two atomicity.
  • Therefore, the internal energy of ozone gas is the highest 290K.
