A vessel contains 3 moles of \(\mathrm{He}, 1\) mole of Ar, 5 moles of \(\mathrm{N}_2\) and 3 moles of \(\mathrm{H}_2\). If the vibrational modes are ignored, the total internal energy of the system of gases is

  1. A \(20 R T\)
  2. B \(26 R T\)
  3. C \(25 R T\)
  4. D \(30 R T\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(26 R T\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Translational kinetic energy of a gas volume is \[ U=\frac{f}{2} R T \] Where, \(f=\) degrees of freedom of gas molecules. Now, \(f=3\) for He or Ar monoatomic and \(f=5\) for \(\mathrm{H}_2\) or \(\mathrm{N}_2\). Diatomic. Hence, for 3 moles of He, 1 mole Ar, 5 moles of…
