Helium atom is two times heavier than a hydrogen molecule at 298 K. The average kinetic energy of helium is

A

two times that of hydrogen molecule

B

same as that of hydrogen molecule

C

four times that of hydrogen molecule

D

half that of hydrogen molecule

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
