The correct Answer is:
To find the final temperature of the mixture of three perfect gases, we can use the principle of conservation of energy. Here’s the step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Define the number of moles of each gas The number of moles of each gas can be defined as follows: - For gas 1: \( n_1 = \frac{N_1}{N_A} \) - For gas 2: \( n_2 = \frac{N_2}{N_A} \) - For gas 3: \( n_3 = \frac{N_3}{N_A} \) Where \( N_A \) is Avogadro's number. ### Step 2: Write the energy conservation equation Since there is no loss of energy, the total energy before mixing is equal to the total energy after mixing. The energy of each gas can be expressed as: - Energy of gas 1: \( E_1 = n_1 R T_1 \) - Energy of gas 2: \( E_2 = n_2 R T_2 \) - Energy of gas 3: \( E_3 = n_3 R T_3 \) Thus, the total energy before mixing is: \[ E_{total} = E_1 + E_2 + E_3 = n_1 R T_1 + n_2 R T_2 + n_3 R T_3 \] ### Step 3: Express the total energy after mixing After mixing, the total number of moles is \( n_{total} = n_1 + n_2 + n_3 \). The energy of the mixture can be expressed as: \[ E_{mix} = n_{total} R T_{mix} \] ### Step 4: Set the total energy before mixing equal to the total energy after mixing Setting the total energy before mixing equal to the total energy after mixing gives us: \[ n_1 R T_1 + n_2 R T_2 + n_3 R T_3 = (n_1 + n_2 + n_3) R T_{mix} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the equation We can cancel \( R \) from both sides (assuming \( R \neq 0 \)): \[ n_1 T_1 + n_2 T_2 + n_3 T_3 = (n_1 + n_2 + n_3) T_{mix} \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( T_{mix} \) Rearranging the equation to solve for \( T_{mix} \) gives: \[ T_{mix} = \frac{n_1 T_1 + n_2 T_2 + n_3 T_3}{n_1 + n_2 + n_3} \] ### Final Answer The final temperature of the mixture is: \[ T_{mix} = \frac{n_1 T_1 + n_2 T_2 + n_3 T_3}{n_1 + n_2 + n_3} \] ---
