The internal energy of one mole of a rigid diatomic gas at absolute temperature \(T\) is

  1. A \(3RT\)
  2. B \(\frac{5}{2} \mathrm{RT}\)
  3. C \(\frac{3}{2} R T\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{RT}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{5}{2} \mathrm{RT}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(U = n \frac{f}{2} RT\) \(U = 1 \cdot \frac{5}{2} RT = \frac{5}{2} RT\)
