Figure shows two vessels with adiabatic walls, one containing 0.1 g of helium (gamma =1.67 , M = 4 g mol^(-1)) and the other containing some amount of hydrogen (gamma = 1.4, M = 2 g mol^(-1)) . Initially , the temperatures of the two gases are equal. The gases electrically heated for some time during which equal amounts of heat are given to the gases. It is found that the temperatures rise through the same amount in the two vessels. Calculate the mass of hydrogen.

(i) A conducting piston divides a closed thermally insulated cylinder into two equal parts. The piston can slide inside the cylinder without friction. The two parts of the cylinder contain equal number of moles of an ideal gas at temperature T_(0) . An external agent slowly moves the piston so as to increase the volume of one part and decrease that of the other. Write the gas temperature as a function of ratio (beta) of the volumes of the larger and the smaller parts. The adiabatic exponent of the gas is gamma . (ii) In a closed container of volume V there is a mixture of oxygen and helium gases. The total mass of gas in the container is m gram. When Q amount of heat is added to the gas mixture its temperature rises by Delta T . Calculate change in pressure of the gas.

Equal amounts of heat are supplied to equal masses of helium and oxygen, kept at the same initial temperature. If T_(He)andT_(O) denote the increase in temperatures of helium and oxygen, then
