Molecule 'A' is twice as heavy as the molecule 'B .' Which of these has higher kinetic energy at any temperature?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

K.E. of a molecule is directly proportional to temperature and is independent of its mass. So both the molecules .A. and .B. at any temperature will have equal kinetic energy.
