Question

A diatomic gas at temperature T is kept in a container of volume V. The total kinetic energy of the gas is given as E = k₁T. Where k₁ is a constant. The pressure of gas is given by–

• A. $\frac{3k_{1}T}{2V}$
• B. $\frac{5k_{1}T}{2V}$
• C. $\frac{2k_{1}T}{5V}$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$\frac{2k_{1}T}{5V}$

Answer 2

E = $\frac{5}{2}$NkT and PV = NkT
