The encrgy of gas molecules in a gas al given lemperature $T(K)$ is calculated based on kinctic theory of gascs. Column-I Column-II (a) Mean kinetic energy per mole of diatomic gas (p) $(f / 2) K T$ (b) Mean kinetic energy per molecule of gas (q) $(3 / 2) R T$ (c) Mean kinetic energy per mole of an ideal gas (r) $(5 / 2) R T$ (d) Mean kinetic energy per molecule of poly atomic gas (s) $(7 / 2) K T$

An ideal gas is contained in a vessel at 300 K. For the following 3 questions, choose from the following: (a) 9 (b) 3 (c) √3 (d) 1 (e) 1/3 If the temperature is increased to 900 K, (i) What is the multiplicative factor of change in the average kinetic energy of the molecules? (ii) What is the multiplicative factor of change in the rms molecular speed? (iii) What is the multiplicative factor of change in the average momentum change that one molecule undergoes in a collision with one particular wall?
