$N$ moles of a diatomic gas in a cylinder are at a temperature $T$. Heat is supplied to the cylinder such that the temperature remains constant but $n$ moles of the diatomic gas get converted into monoatomic gas. What is the change in the total kinetic energy of the gas?

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2}nRT$
  • B
    $0$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2}nRT$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{2}nRT$
