Homework Statement
Two ideal gases are separated by a partition which does not allow molecules to pass from one volume to the other. Gas 1 has: N1, V1, T1, Cv1 for the number of molecules, volume it occupies, temperature in kelvin, and specific heat per molecule at constant volume respectively. Gas 2 has: N2, V2, T2, Cv2. The two gases are in thermal contact and reach a final temperature
a) find the final temperature and the total change in energy of the combined system. Check your answer for the final temperature when N1=N2, V1=V2. Cv1=Cv2
b)Evaluate the total change ina quantity H whose differential change is dH=dU+Vdp for each component and for the entire system
c)evaluate the total change in a quantity A whose differential change is dA=(dU+pdV)/T for each component and for the entire system
Homework Equations
U=NVCvdT
The Attempt at a Solution
I already solved for the final temperature for part a, and when evaluated at equal N and V i got Tf=(T2+T1)/2
i am having trouble finding b and c
