A gas mixture consists of $2$ moles of oxygen and $4$ moles argon at temperature $T$. Neglecting all vibrational modes, the total internal energy of the system is
A
$4 RT$
B
$15 RT$
C
$9 RT$
D
$11 RT$
Solution
(d) Oxygen is diatomic gas, hence its energy of two moles $ = 2 \times \frac{5}{2}RT = 5RT$
Argon is a monoatomic gas, hence its internal energy of $4$ moles $ = 4 \times \frac{3}{2}RT = 6RT$
Total Internal energy $ = (6 + 5)RT = 11RT$
