If 4 moles of an ideal monoatomic gas at temperature $400 \mathrm{~K}$ is mixed with 2 moles of another ideal monoatomic gas at temperature $700 \mathrm{~K}$, the temperature of the mixture is
  1. $550^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$
  2. $5000^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$
  3. $550 \mathrm{~K}$
  4. $500 \mathrm{~K}$

Solution

Temperature of the mixture $ \begin{aligned} T & =\frac{m_1 T_1+m_2 T_2}{m_1+m_2} \\ & =\frac{4(400)+2(700)}{4+2}=500 \mathrm{~K} \end{aligned} $
