12.Kinetic Theory of Gases
normal
One mole of ideal monoatomic gas $(\gamma = 5/3)$ is mixed with one mole of diatomic gas $(\gamma = 7/5)$ . What is $\gamma $ for the mixture ? $\gamma $ denotes the ratio of specific heat at constant pressure, to that at constant volume
A
$3/2$
B
$23/15$
C
$35/23$
D
$4/3$
Solution
$\frac{\mu_1}{\gamma_1-1}+\frac{\mu_2}{\gamma_2-1}=\frac{\mu_1+\mu_2}{\gamma_{mix}-1}$
