Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The planet from the given two planets that has higher atmospheric temperature is to be identified. The validation of the corresponding answer by citing specific equations is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

A molecule is made up of atoms that are bonded together by covalent bonds. These bonds undergo a to and fro movement to vibrate. This vibration of the molecule contributes to the overall partition function of the system. The vibrational temperature of a diatomic gas is given as,

θv=hvk

Where,

k represents the Boltzmann constant with value 1.381×1023J/K.

T represents the temperature (K).

v represents the ith vibrational frequency.
