The correct answer is: temperature
The quantity $h v / K_{\mathrm{B}}$ corresponds to temperature. $h v=3 / 2 K_{\mathrm{B}} T$
where, $T=$ temperature $K_{\mathrm{B}}=$ Boltzmann constant $$
\begin{array}{l}
\frac{h v}{K_{B}}=\frac{3}{2} T
\end{array}
$$
since, $\frac{3}{2}$ is a constant, the value of $\frac{h v}{K_{\mathrm{B}}}$ corresponds
to temperature. Therefore option
(c) is correct.
