    The document discusses heat (Q) supplied to a closed cylindrical vessel containing N moles of an ideal diatomic gas at temperature T. If heat is supplied such that the temperature remains the same but n moles of gas dissociate into atoms, the heat supplied is equal to nRT/2, where n is the number of moles dissociated and R is the gas constant. The derivation shows that the change in internal energy from dissociation is balanced by the heat supplied.

    Question: A closed cyclindrical vessel contains N moles of an ideal diatomic gas at a temperature

    T.On supplying heat ,temperature remains same,but n moles get dissociated into
    atoms.The heat supplied is
    1)2.5(N-n)RT

    Answer: Suppose n moles get dissociated (N n) moles will be left.


    Internal energy will charge.
