P - V plots for two gases during P4 adiabatic process are shown in the figure. Plots 1 and 2 should correspond respectively to

Answer»

`He " and " O_(2)`
`O_(2) " and " He`
`He" and " Ar`
`O_(2) " and " N_(2)`.

Solution :In ADIABATIC process, slope of PV - GRAPH
`(dP)/(dV) = - gamma P/V`
slope is `gamma` with negative sign.
From the given graph `("slope")_(2) GT ("slope")_(1)`
` :. gamma_(2) gt gamma_(1)`
Therefore , CURVE 1 should correspond to `O_(2) (gamma = 1.4) ` and curve 2 should correspond to He `(gamma = 1.67)`.
