Question

State and explain law of equipartition of energy of a gas show that specific heat of solids C= 3R​

Answer 1

Answer:

Boltzmann's law of equipartition of energy states that the energy of a molecule (gas) is equally partitioned (divided) into different degrees of freedom that the molecule has. The energy per partition (degree of freedom) is equal to 1/2 k T per molecule or 1/2 * RT per mole.
