According to the law of equipartition of...

According to the law of equipartition of energy, internal energy of an ideal gas at a given temperature, is equally distributed in translational and rotational kinetic energies.
Rotational kinetic energy of a monoatomic gas is zero.

A

If both Assertion and Reason are true and the reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Internal energy is equally distributrd in all degrees of freedom. For example
`(K_T)/(K_R) = 3/2 `
As `f_T = 3 and f_R = 2`.
