Question:
Equal volumes of monoatomic and diatomic gases at the same temperature are given equal quantities of heat. Then
Equal volumes of monoatomic and diatomic gases at the same temperature are given equal quantities of heat. Then
Updated On: Jan 5, 2024
- the temperature of diatomic gas will be more
- the temperature of monoatomic gas will be more
- the temperature of both will be zero
- nothing can be said

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Energy required to increase the temperature of one mole of monoatomic gas by $\Delta T =3 / 2 \times R \times \Delta T$
Energy required to increase the temperature of one mole of a diatomic gas by $\Delta T =5 / 2 \times R \times \Delta T$
So, for equal volume i.e. equal moles equal amount of heat will increase the temperature of a monoatomic gas more than the diatomic gas
