Question:
Three diatomic molecules from different gas samplesone at \(3 \mathrm{~K}\), one at \(298 \mathrm{~K}\), and one at \(1000 \mathrm{~K}\)-are in thermal equilibrium with their respective surroundings.
(a) Rank the molecules according to heat capacity per molecule at constant volume, highest first.
(b) What is the thermal energy of each molecule, expressed in terms of \(T\) and \(k_{\mathrm{B}}\) ?
