Molecular Speeds: a Container Is Filled with a Mixture of Helium

Multiple Choice

Molecular speeds: A container is filled with a mixture of helium (light molecules) and oxygen (heavy molecules) gases. A thermometer in the container reads 22°C. Which gas molecules have the greater average kinetic energy?

A) It is the same for both of the gases because the temperatures are the same.
B) The oxygen molecules do because they are diatomic.
C) The oxygen molecules do because they are more massive.
D) The helium molecules do because they are less massive.
E) The helium molecules do because they are monatomic.
