Fraction of the molecules need to be monatomic

Reference no: EM13556763

An experiment you're designing needs a gas with gamma = 1.59. You recallfrom your physics class that no individual gas has this value, butit occurs to you that you could produce a gas with gamma = 1.59 by mixingtogether a monatomic gas and a diatomic gas.
