The work of 142kJ is performed in order to compress one kilo mole of gas adiabatically and in this process the temperature of the gas increases by `7^@C`. The gas is `(R=8.3Jmol^-1K^-1)`A. diatomicB. triatomicC. a mixture of monoatomic and diatomicD. monoatomic

Answer» Correct Answer - A
(a) `W=(nRDeltaT)/(1-gamma) rArr -146000=(1000xx8.3xx7)/(1-gamma)`
or `1-gamma=-58.1/146 rArr gamma=1+58.1/146=1.4`
Hence the gas is diatomic.
