Maxwell-Boltzmann molecular speed distribution curves for \(\text{N}_2\text{(g)}\) at temperatures \(T_1\) and \(T_2\).
Maxwell-Boltzmann molecular speed distribution curves for \(\text{N}_2\text{(g)}\) at temperatures \(T_1\) and \(T_2\).
The graph below shows the Maxwell-Boltzmann molecular speed distributions for a \(1.00\text{ mol}\) sample of \(\text{N}_2\text{(g)}\) in a rigid \(2.00\text{ L}\) container at two different temperatures, \(T_1\) and \(T_2\).

Which of the following statements correctly compares the two temperatures and provides the valid justification based on the kinetic molecular theory?
