1)Two moles of monoatomic gas is mixed with three moles of diatomic gas. The molar specific heat of the mixture at constant volume is ??
 
2)If the density of a gas at ntp is 1.3mg/cc and velocity of sound in it is 330m/s. The number of degrees of freedom of gasmolecule is??
 
3)A diatomic gas does 80J of work when expanded isobarically. The heat given to the gas during this process is  ??
 
PLEASE HELP!!!                                                         (RATES FOR SURE!!!!)

1 of monoatomic gas = (f+2)/f = (3+2)/3 = 5/3

2 of diatomic gas = (5+2)/5 = 7/5


= [n1 1 + n22] / (n1+ n2)
   = 1.506
Cv = R/ ( -1)
Cv = 16.43

v =  (
P/)
330 =
(*1.013*105/1.3)
solving u get
= 1.3975
use
= (f+2)/f
u get 'f' = 5

I Understood the method, but the answer given is 2.1R (=17.451)

3)A diatomic gas does 80J of work when expanded isobarically. The heat given to the gas during this process is  ??
W = PdV = nRdt
80 = ndTR
ndT = 9.62
dQ = dU +dW
nCpdT = nCvdt + dW
          = (ndT)20.785 + 80           ................     using Cv=fR/2
          = 
9.62*20.785 + 80
          = 279.95J


i hope its right

W = PdV
but PdV = nRdt ...............coz PV= nRT
so W =nRdT
     u know the values of R(8.314) and W(80)
so u get the value of ndT

i am telling u the shortcut formula--
f=degrees of freedom

 f mixture=(n1f1 +n2f2 )/(n1+n2)
where n=number of moles

here f mixture=(2*3 +3*5)/(2+3)
                    =21/5

Cv=fR/2
   =21R/10

   =2.1R

if u want to know the actual method, its this--

we use
dU=nCvdT
 also
dU=nfRdT/2

therefore
we calculate the total internal energy of the gas--
dU=dT/2*(2*3*R+ 3*5*R)
    =21R/2*dT
    =nCvdT
where n=total number of moles=3+2=5
    therefore
21R/2=5Cv
Cv=21R/10
  
   =2.1R

do learn shorcuts but first understand how and from where it comes the given derivation is for anchit's shortcut

for mixture of two gases U = U1 + U2 ( U1 and U2 are the internal enargies of the mixed gases )

( f/2) nRT = (f1/2)n1RT + (f2/2)n2RT

f = ( n1f1 +n2f2)/ n1 + n2
