MCQ
A mixture of ideal gases $7\,\, kg$ of nitrogen and $11 \,\,kg$ of $CO_2$. Then

(Take $\gamma$ for nitrogen and $CO_2$ as $1.4$ and $1.3$ respectively)

  • A
    equivalent molecular weight of the mixture is $36.$
  • B
    $\gamma$ for the mixture is $47/35.$
  • C
    $\gamma$ for the mixture is $5/2$
  • Both $(A)$ and $(B)$

Answer

Correct option: D.
Both $(A)$ and $(B)$
d
$n_{N_{2}}=\frac{7 \mathrm{kg}}{28}=0.25 \mathrm{k}$ moles

$f_{N_{2}}=\frac{2}{\gamma-1}=\frac{2}{1.4-1}=5$

$n_{\mathrm{CO}_{2}}=\frac{11 \mathrm{kg}}{44}=0.25 \mathrm{kmoles}$

$f_{C O_{2}}=\frac{2}{1.3-1}=\frac{2}{0.3}=\frac{20}{3}$

$\therefore$ Equivalent molecular weight

$=\frac{\mathrm{n}_{1} \mathrm{M}_{1}+\mathrm{n}_{2} \mathrm{M}_{2}}{\mathrm{n}_{1}+\mathrm{n}_{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{m}_{1}+\mathrm{m}_{2}}{\mathrm{n}_{1}+\mathrm{n}_{2}}$

$=\frac{7+11}{0.25+0.25}=36 \mathrm{gm}$

$\gamma_{\operatorname{mix}} \neq \frac{n_{1} \gamma_{1}+n_{2} \gamma_{2}+\ldots . .}{n_{1}+n_{2}+\ldots . .}$

$f_{\operatorname{mix}}=\frac{n_{1} f_{1}+n_{2} f_{2}+\ldots .}{n_{1}+n_{2}}$

$=\frac{\left(0.25 \times 5+0.25 \times \frac{20}{3}\right)}{0.25+0.25 \times \frac{20}{3}}=\frac{35}{6}$

$\therefore \gamma_{\operatorname{mix}}=1+\frac{2}{f_{\operatorname{mix}}}$

$=1+\frac{2}{35 / 6}=\frac{47}{35}=1.34$
