A closed container contains a homogeneous mixture of two moles of an ideal monatomic gas $(\gamma=5 / 3)$ and one mole of an ideal diatomic gas $(\gamma=7 / 5)$. Here, $\gamma$ is the ratio of the specific heats at constant pressure and constant volume of an ideal gas. The gas mixture does a work of $66$ Joule when heated at constant pressure. The change in its internal energy is. . . . . . .Joule.
