    When the temperature of an ideal gas is increased from\[27{}^\circ C\]to\[927{}^\circ C,\]the kinetic energy will be:

    A)  same           

    B)  eight times

    C)  four times      

    D)  twice

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Increase in temperature of ideal gas from \[27{}^\circ C\]to\[927{}^\circ C\] \[\therefore \] Increase in \[KE=\frac{3}{2}RT\] \[{{T}_{1}}=27+273\Rightarrow 300\text{ }K\] \[{{T}_{2}}=927+27\Rightarrow 1200\text{ }K\] \[\because \] \[KE\propto T\] \[\therefore \] \[\frac{K{{E}_{1}}}{K{{E}_{2}}}=\frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}}=\frac{300}{1200}=\frac{1}{4}\] \[K{{E}_{2}}=4K{{E}_{1}}\] Hence, kinetic energy is increased four times.
