A gas mixture has 24%24 \% of Argon, 32%32 \% of oxygen, and 44%44 \% of CO2\mathrm{CO}_2 by mass. Find the velocity of sound in the gas mixture at 27∘C27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}. Given R=8.4R=8.4 S.I. units. Molecular weight of (Ar=40),(O2=32),(CO2=44)(\mathrm{Ar}=40),\left(\mathrm{O}_2=32\right),\left(\mathrm{CO}_2=44\right).

γAr=5/3,γO2=7/5,γCO2=4/3. \gamma_{\mathrm{Ar}}=5 / 3, \gamma_{\mathrm{O}_2}=7 / 5, \gamma_{\mathrm{CO}_2}=4 / 3 \text {. }
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
303.5 m/s303.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}
Option A (303.5 m/s303.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}) is correct because it is the calculated velocity of sound in the gas mixture based on the given composition and properties.
