One mole of ideal monatomic gas is mixed with one mole of diatomic gas . What is for the mixture? Denotes the ratio of specific heat at constant pressure, to that at constant volume
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
-
Given one mole each of two ideal gases:
- Monatomic gas:
- Diatomic gas:
We need for the mixture.
-
Use the relation Hence,
-
For the monatomic gas mole:
-
For the diatomic gas mole:
-
For the mixture of 1 mole + 1 mole: Total heat capacities are additive:
-
Therefore,
-
Match with options: So the correct option is C.
