//Given data
gam = 1.5               // specific heat ratio
Cp1 = 20.7860           // molar heat capacity of Helium in kJ/mol K
Cv1 = 12.4717           // molar heat capacity of Helium in kJ/mol K
Cp2 = 28.6455           // molar heat capacity of Hydrogen  in kJ/mol K
Cv2 = 20.3311           // molar heat capacity of Hydrogen in kJ/mol K

// Calculations
// X1 be the molefraction of He in the mixture
// CP_m = X1*Cp1 + (1-X1)*Cp2
// Cv_m = X1*Cv1 + (1-X1)*Cv2
// gam = (X1*Cp1 + (1-X1)*Cp2)/(X1*Cv1 + (1-X1)*Cv2)

X2 = (1-X1)*100         // volume composition of H2

// Output Results
