The gases carbon-monoxide (CO) and nitrogen at the same temperature have kinetic energies `E_(1)` and `E_(2)` respectively. Then

A

`E_(1)=E_(2)`

B

`E_(1) gt E_(2)`

C

`E_(1) lt E_(2)`

D

`E_(1) and E_(2)` cannot be compared

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The gases carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen `(N_(2))` are diatomic, so both have equal kinetic energy `(5)/(2)kT, i.e. E_(1)=E_(2)`.
