The average kinetic energy of translation of H2 gas molecule at temperature T is 0.01 eV. What is the average kinetic energy of translation of N2 gas molecule at same temperature T?

Solution
Average Kinetic Energy = 3 over 2 K T
At the same temperature, the average translational K.e is not dependent on the mass of the matter. That is, it remains the same for the same temperature. 
Therefore, Average translational K.E of N2 gas = 0.01 eV
