Question

1. They both refer to a part of the total energy that is localized in a single degree of freedom, but the first is for a single molecule, the second for a mole of molecules.

2.They both mean the total energy of the system and you would put in the same number.   

3. They both mean the same energy a part of the total energy that is localized in a single degree of freedom of a single molecule.

4.None of the above.

5.They both refer to a part of the total energy that is localized in a single degree of freedom, but the first is for a mole of molecules, the second for a single molecule.

6.They both mean the total energy of the system but you would put in a different number since the units are different.

7.They both mean the same energy a part of the total energy that is localized in a single degree of freedom of a mole of molecules.

Explanation / Answer

The correct option is 1. They both refer to a part of the total energy that is localized in a single degree of freedom, but the first is for a single molecule, the second for a mole of molecules.

As Kb: Boltzmann constant = R/NA Where NA being avogadro number corresponding to 1 mole. Hence energy is equivalent to 1 mole.
