Detailed Solution

Average kinetic energy per molecule of a perfect  gas =32kT.

 Average KE of molecules of the first gas =32n1kT1

Average KE of molecules of the second gas =32n2kT2

Total KE of the molecules of the two gases before they are mixed is

                        K=32n1kT1+32n2kT2    =32n1T1+n2T2k                             1                     

If T is the temperature of the mixture, the kinetic energy of the molecules (n1 + n2) in the mixture is       

                     K'=32n1+n2kT                   2

Since there is no loss of energy K = K'. Equating (1) and (2) we get 

                 n1T1+n2T2=n1+n2T or T=n1T1+n2T2n1+n2
