Short Answer

Expert verified
The change in temperature is \(\Delta T = \frac{M_0 \times V^2}{3R}\). The correct option is (C).

Step by step solution

01

Write down the conservation of energy formula

We need to apply conservation of energy, so we will equate the initial kinetic energy of the container to the final change in internal energy of the gas: \( E_{kinetic} = \Delta E_{internal} \)
02

Write down initial kinetic energy

The initial kinetic energy is given by: \( E_{kinetic} = \frac{1}{2} M_0 V^2 \)
03

Write down internal energy change

For a monoatomic gas, the change in internal energy ΔE is given by: \( \Delta E_{internal} = \frac{3}{2} n R \Delta T \) where n is the number of moles and R is the gas constant.
04

Calculate the number of moles

We need to find the number of moles (n) from the given molar mass M₀: \( n = \frac{M_0}{Molar\:mass} \)
05

Apply conservation of energy

Now we will apply conservation of energy using initial kinetic energy and change in internal energy. Replace ΔE with the appropriate terms: \( \frac{1}{2} M_0 V^2 = \frac{3}{2} n R \Delta T \) Replace n: \( \frac{1}{2} M_0 V^2 = \frac{3}{2} \frac{M_0}{Molar\:mass} R \Delta T \) Now we need to solve for \(\Delta T\):
06

Solve for the change in temperature

To solve for \(\Delta T\), follow these steps: Divide both sides by M₀, and then multiply both sides by 2: \( V^2 = 3 \frac{R}{Molar\:mass} \Delta T \) Now, multiply both sides by Molar mass and divide by 3R: \( \Delta T = \frac{Molar\:mass \times V^2}{3R} \) Since we are given initial molar mass M₀, and we know that for an ideal gas, Molar mass = M₀: \( \Delta T = \frac{M_0 \times V^2}{3R} \) So, the change in temperature is given by the formula: \( \Delta T = \left\\{ \left( M_0 V^2 \right) / \left( 3R \right) \right\\} \) Thus, the answer is (C).
