    If 2 g mole of diatomic gas and 1 g mole of monoatomic gas are mixed together, then  the ratio of specific heats of mixture is:  

    A) 1.24                                       

    B) 1.58           

    C) 1.46                                       

    D) 1.60           

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[{{(C\upsilon )}_{mono}}=\frac{3}{2}R,{{({{C}_{\upsilon }})}_{di}}=\frac{5}{2}R\] \[\therefore \]  \[1\times \frac{3}{2}R\times \Delta T+2\times \frac{5}{2}R\times \Delta T=3{{C}_{\upsilon }}\Delta T\]                 \[\frac{3}{2}R+5R=3{{C}_{\upsilon }}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{C}_{\upsilon }}=\frac{13R}{6}\] Again\[{{({{C}_{p}})}_{mono}}=\frac{5}{2}R,{{({{C}_{p}})}_{di}}=\frac{7}{2}R\] \[\therefore \]\[1\times \frac{5}{2}R\times \Delta T+2\times \frac{7}{2}R\times \Delta T=3{{C}_{p}}\Delta T\]                 \[\frac{5}{2}R=7R=3{{C}_{p}}\]                 \[\frac{19R}{2}=3{{C}_{p}}\]                 \[{{C}_{p}}=\frac{19R}{6}\] Therefore, ratio of specific heats of  mixture\[=\frac{{{C}_{p}}}{{{C}_{\upsilon }}}\]                 \[=\frac{19R}{6}\times \frac{6}{13R}\]                 \[=1.46\]
