An insulating cylinder contains 4 moles of an ideal diatomic gas. When a heat
is supplied, to it, 2 moles of the gas molecules dissociate. If the temperature of the gas remains constant, then the value of
is (
- universal gas constant)
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Heat supplied "
" is given by:

Initially cylinder contains 4 moles of diatomic gas,

2 moles of diatomic gas dissociate into monoatomic gas.
Hence there are 4 moles of monoatomic gas and 2 moles of diatomic gas.
Final Internal Energy is given by:

Thus Heat supplied is,
