Question:medium
At constant pressure, if equal amounts of heat are supplied to a monoatomic gas and a rigid diatomic gas, then the ratio of the changes in the internal energies of the monoatomic and diatomic gases is:
At constant pressure, if equal amounts of heat are supplied to a monoatomic gas and a rigid diatomic gas, then the ratio of the changes in the internal energies of the monoatomic and diatomic gases is:
Show Hint
For equal heat supplied:
\[
\Delta U=Q\frac{C_V}{C_P}.
\]
Use specific heat ratios directly.

- Two vessels \( A \) and \( B \) are of the same size and are at the same temperature. Vessel \( A \) contains \( 1 \, \text{g} \) of hydrogen and vessel \( B \) contains \( 1 \, \text{g} \) of oxygen. \( P_A \) and \( P_B \) are the pressures of the gases in \( A \) and \( B \) respectively. Then \( \frac{P_A}{P_B} \) is:
