he Equipartition Theorem is one of the highest-yield concepts in Kinetic Theory of Gases. Every degree of freedom contributes ยฝkBT to the average kinetic energy, but the total energy depends entirely on the type of moleculeโmonoatomic, diatomic, or polyatomic. Don't forget the most important exam trick: Vibrational degrees of freedom contribute only at high temperatures, and each vibrational mode contributes kBT (not ยฝkBT)!
