  1. A \(900 \mathrm{cal} \mathrm{K}^{-1} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\)
  2. B \(6.21 \times 10^{-21} \mathrm{JK}^{-1}\) molecule \(^{-1}\)
  3. C 336.7 \(\mathrm{JK}^{-1}\) molecule \(^{-1}\)
  4. D \(3741.3 \mathrm{JK}^{-1} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(6.21 \times 10^{-21} \mathrm{JK}^{-1}\) molecule \(^{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Average kinetic energy per molecule \(=\frac{3}{2} k T\) or \(\quad=\frac{3}{2} \frac{R}{N_0} T\) \(\begin{aligned} & =\frac{3}{2} \times \frac{8.314}{6.023 \times 10^{23}} \times 300 \\ & =6.21 \times 10^{-21} \mathrm{JK}^{-1} \text { molecule }^{-1}\end{aligned}\)
