A 32.0 g32.0\,\text{g} sample of O2(g)\mathrm{O_2(g)} is heated at constant volume from 250 K250\,\text{K} to 500 K500\,\text{K}. Given R=8.314 J mol−1 K−1R = 8.314\,\text{J mol}^{-1}\,\text{K}^{-1}, what is the increase in average kinetic energy per gram of O2\mathrm{O_2}, expressed in kJ g−1\text{kJ g}^{-1}? (a) 0.065 kJ g−10.065\,\text{kJ g}^{-1} (b) 0.195 kJ g−10.195\,\text{kJ g}^{-1} (c) 0.097 kJ g−10.097\,\text{kJ g}^{-1} (d) 9.7 kJ g−19.7\,\text{kJ g}^{-1}
