A mixture contains 1 mole of helium (C P = 2.5 R, C V = 1.5R) and 1 mole of hydrogen (C P = 3.5 R, C V = 2.5 R). Calculate the values of C P , C V and γ for the mixture.

Question

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Given,

C_P1 = 2.5 R, C_V1= 1.5R for helium

C_P2 = 3.5 R, C_V2= 2.5 R for hydrogen

n1=n2=1

We know dU =nC_vdT

Where dU is the change in internal energy, n is the number of moles, Cv is the molar heat capacity at constant volume and dT is the change in temperature.
