The diagram shows the Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution of molecular kinetic energies for a sample of gas at two different temperatures.
Which of the following statements correctly identifies the most probable energy and the relative position of the mean energy for the molecules at the higher temperature?
The most probable energy is E1E_1E1 and the mean energy is to the left of E1E_1E1.
The most probable energy is E2E_2E2 and the mean energy is to the right of E2E_2E2.
The most probable energy is E2E_2E2 and the mean energy is to the left of E2E_2E2.
The most probable energy is E1E_1E1 and the mean energy is to the right of E1E_1E1.
