प्रश्न
Comment on the following statement: the temperature of all the molecules in a sample of a gas is the same.
Advertisements
उत्तर
Yes, at equilibrium all the molecules in a sample of gas have the same temperature. This is because temperature is defined as the average kinetic energy for all the molecules in a system. Since all the molecules have the same average, temperature will be the same for all the molecules.
