Question

One mole of ideal monoatomic gas (v=5/3) is mixed with one mole of diatomic gas (γ=7/5). What is γ for the mixture? (γ denotes the ratio of specific heat at constant pressure, to that at constant volume.)
  1. 3/2
  2. 35/23
  3. 23/15
  4. 4/3

A
4/3
B
3/2
C
23/15
D
35/23
Solution
Verified by Toppr

For a monoatomic gas:
Cv=3R2
For a diatomic gas:
Cv=5R2
Thereofore Cvavg=3R2+5R22=2R
Also Cp=Cv+R
Cpavg=3R
γ=CpavgCvavg=32
