An insulating cylinder contains $4 \text{ moles}$ of an ideal diatomic gas. When a heat $Q$ is supplied to it, $2 \text{ moles}$ of the gas molecules dissociate. If the temperature of the gas remains constant, then the value of $Q$ is ($R$ - universal gas constant).

$N$ moles of an ideal diatomic gas are in a cylinder at temperature $T$. Suppose on supplying heat to the gas, its temperature remains constant but $n$ moles get dissociated into atoms. Heat supplied to the gas is

$1$ mole of rigid diatomic gas performs a work of $Q/5$ when heat $Q$ is supplied to it. The molar heat capacity of the gas during this transformation is $\frac{xR}{8}.$ The value of $x$ is $\ldots \ldots \ldots .$ $[R =$ universal gas constant $]$

Two cylinders $A$ and $B$ fitted with pistons contain equal amount of an ideal diatomic gas at $303 \text{ K}$. The piston of cylinder $A$ is free to move and that of cylinder $B$ is held fixed. The same amount of heat is given to the gas in each cylinder. If the rise in temperature of the gas in cylinder $B$ is $63 \text{ K}$, then the rise in temperature of the gas in $A$ is: (in $\text{ K}$)
