A gas has volume `V` and pressure `p`. The total translational kinetic energy of all the molecules of the gas is

A

3/2 pV only if th gas in monoatomic

B

3/2 pV only if the gas is diatomic

C

3/2 pV in all cases

D

None of above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Translational degree of freedom for any type of gas is three. `therefore` Total translational kinetic energy `=3(1/2nRT)=3/2pV`
