Question: (a) What is the total random translational kinetic energy of 5.00 L of hydrogen gas (molar mass 2.016 g/mol) with pressure 1.01 X 105 Pa

(a) What is the total random translational kinetic energy of 5.00 L of hydrogen gas (molar mass 2.016 g/mol) with pressure 1.01 X 105 Pa and temperature 300 K? (Hint: Use the procedure of Problem 18.71 as a guide.)
(b) If the tank containing the gas is placed on a swift jet moving at 300.0 m/s, by what percentage is the total kinetic energy of the gas increased?
(c) Since the kinetic energy of the gas molecules is greater when it is on the jet, does this mean that its temperature has gone up? Explain.
