Question
The translational kinetic energy of $N$ molecules of $\text{O}_2$ is $x$ J at –123°C. Another sample of $\text{O}_2$ at 27°C has translational kinetic energy of $2x$ J. The latter sample contains
Answer: A
💡 Solution & Explanation
T doubles from 150K to 300K, which doubles KE per molecule. Since total KE is 2x, N is identical. Therefore, correct answer is A.
