C_{V(mix)}= \frac{1*\frac{3R}{2}+ 1*\frac{5R}{2}}{2} = 2R
but the answer given is 4R
One mole of monoatomic ideal gas is mixed with one mole of a diatomic ideal gas. The molar specific heat of the mixture at constant volume is
C_{V(mix)}= \frac{1*\frac{3R}{2}+ 1*\frac{5R}{2}}{2} = 2R
but the answer given is 4R
Cv=(1*3R2+1*5R2)1+1 =2R
But the answer is 4R.
Plz explain.What is the correct answer?????
