A planet with the diameter and mass, both one third of those of the earth has surface temperature around 1000 K. Is it possible to find oxygen molecules around the atmosphere of the planet? (Given: Boltzmann constant = `1.38 xx 10^-23 J/K`, Mass of oxygen molecule = `5.3 xx 10^-26 kg` )

A

It is possible.

B

It is not possible.

C

It is possible only if temperature is less than 800 K.

D

It is possible only if gravitational acceleration of planet is thrice that of the earth.
