उत्तर
(c) The pressures of helium and neon will be the same but that of oxygen will be different.
(d) The temperatures of helium and neon will be the same but that of oxygen will be different.
Adiabatic process is expressed as
pVγ = constant or
TVγ-1 = constant ,
where `gamma = "C"^"p"/("C"^"v")`
is the ratio of molar heat capacities at constant pressure and volume.
We know that γ is equal to 1.67 and 1.40 for a monatomic gas and a diatomic gas, respectively. Helium and neon are monatomic gases and oxygen is a diatomic gas. Therefore, changing the state of the gases, i.e. reducing the volume will lead to identical changes in temperature and pressure for helium and neon and that will be different for oxygen.

[Hint: Assume the atoms to be ‘tightly packed’ in a solid or liquid phase, and use the known value of Avogadro’s number. You should, however, not take the actual numbers you obtain for various atomic sizes too literally. Because of the crudeness of the tight packing approximation, the results only indicate that atomic sizes are in the range of a few Å].
In a real gas, the internal energy depends on temperature and also on volume. The energy increases when the gas expands isothermally. Examining the derivation of Cp − Cv = R, find whether Cp − Cv will be more than R, less than R or equal to R for a real gas.

The figure shows two vessels with adiabatic walls, one containing 0.1 g of helium (γ = 1.67, M = 4 g mol−1) and the other containing some amount of hydrogen (γ = 1.4, M = 2 g mol−1). Initially, the temperatures of the two gases are equal. The gases are electrically heated for some time during which equal amounts of heat are given to the two gases.
