Step 1
Step 1: The kinetic energy ($KE$) of a molecule is given by the formula: $KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$ where $m$ is the mass of the molecule and $v$ is its velocity. Show more…

Chlorine dioxide, $\mathrm{ClO}_{2},$ is a reddish yellow gas used in bleaching paper pulp. The average speed of a $\mathrm{ClO}_{2}$ molecule at $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ is $306 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. What is the kinetic energy (in joules) of a $\mathrm{ClO}_{2}$ molecule moving at this speed?
