Which temperature represents the highest average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter ?

1 answer:

6 0

Average kinetic energy is proportional to absolute temperature. This means that the higher the temperature the higher the kinetic energy.

This equation reflects that: KE avg = [3/2]kT, where k is the Boltzman constant.

So, you just have to checkg which of the given temperatures is the highest one..

Of course to compare you need to have them all in the same unit system.

Use absolute temperatures in Kelvin.

=> 27°C + 273.15 = 300.15 K.

Then, the highest temperature is 27°C and that represents the highest kinetic energy.

Answer is the option c. 27°C

Could a man with type B blood and a woman with type AB produce a child with type O blood?

Luda [366]

Answer:

The possible genotypes of a man with blood type B are BB or BO and the genotype of a woman with blood type AB is AB. The child would receive an A allele or a B allele from the mother and a B allele or an O allele from the father. Therefore, the child could not possibly be of blood type O.
