The energy (in eV) possessed by a neon atom at \(77^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) is (Blotzmann constant, \(\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{B}}=1.38 \times 10^{-23} \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\) )

  1. A \(1.32 \times 10^{-3}\)
  2. B \(3.20 \times 10^{-4}\)
  3. C \(4.52 \times 10^{-2}\)
  4. D \(3.88 \times 10^{-2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(4.52 \times 10^{-2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Temperature, \(\mathrm{T}=77^{\circ} \mathrm{C}=273+77=350 \mathrm{~K}\) Boltzman constant, \(\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{B}}=1.38 \times 10^{-23} \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{K}\) Energy is given by, \(\mathrm{E}=\frac{3}{2} \mathrm{~K}_{\mathrm{B}} \mathrm{T}\)…
