Detailed Solution

According to the law of equipartition of energy, the energy per degree of freedom of a gas atom or molecule at a temperature θ kelvin is given by

E=12 k θ  or k= 2Eθ 

where k is the Boltzmann's constant.

∴ Dimensions of k=dimensions of Edimensions of θ                          =ML2T-2K= ML2T-2K-1
