The average kinetic energy of a gas molecule can be determined by knowing: [RPET 2000, MP PET 2010]
1. The number of molecules in the gas
2. The pressure of the gas only
3. The temperature of the gas only
4. None of the above is enough by itself
Volume, pressure, and temperature of an ideal gas are \(V,\) \(P,\) and \(T\) respectively. If the mass of its molecule is \(m,\) then its density is:
[\(k\)=Boltzmann's constant]
1. | \(mkT\) | 2. | \(\dfrac{P}{kT}\) |
3. | \(\dfrac{P}{kTV}\) | 4. | \(\dfrac{Pm}{kT}\) |
One liter of gas A and two liters of gas B, both having the same temperature 100C and the same pressure 2.5 bar will have the ratio of average kinetic energies of their molecules as:

2. 1:2
3. 1:4
4. 4:1
