A) initial volume
We can calculate the initial volume of the gas by using the ideal gas law:

where

is the initial pressure of the gas

is the initial volume of the gas

is the number of moles

is the gas constant

is the initial temperature of the gas
By re-arranging this equation, we can find

:

2) Now the gas cools down to a temperature of

while the pressure is kept constant:

, so we can use again the ideal gas law to find the new volume of the gas

3) In a process at constant pressure, the work done by the gas is equal to the product between the pressure and the difference of volume:

by using the data we found at point 1) and 2), we find

where the negative sign means the work is done by the surrounding on the gas.
Answer:
The bowling ball did not change size or shape- the only thing that changed was the amount of gravity that pulls on it. But the mass of the bowling ball would never change. A bowling ball with a mass of 12 pounds on earth will have the mass of 12 pounds on the moon! Mass is the amount of atoms that a space fills.
Explanation:
I hope this helps! :D
Oxygen is diatomic, so its degree of freedom, (f1)= 5,
also its number of moles, n1= 1
Helium is monoatomic, so its degree of freedom (f2)= 3
and its number of moles given is, n2=2
Now using formula of effective degree of freedom of mixture, (f), we have:
f= (f1n1+f2n2)/(n1+n2)
= (5*1 + 3*2)/ (1+3)
=11/3
Also, from first law of thermodynamics;
U= n Cv. T = nRT(f2)
or, Cv = R. (f/2) (n & T cancel)
We know f=11/6,
substituting the value in above relation, we have:
Cv= R. 11/3*2
= R. 11/6
Also, Cp-Cv = R
or, Cp- R.(11/6)= R
or, Cp= R(11/6 )+1
= 17/6 R
Therefore, Cp/Cv = 17/11
