Question

A gaseous system A, with an initial temperature T1, is set to interact with a gaseous system B at an initial temperature T2. The molecules of A and B, both monoatomic, can interact with each other through a wall without mixing. It is known that T2 > T1. Considering this situation, answer the following question.

Consider the statements below and type the sum of the numbers associated with the correct ones (write only the number):

(1) After thermal equilibrium is reached, the system with more molecules necessarily has the higher energy

(2) Equilibrium occurs when the energy of A is equal to that of B 

(4) At equilibrium, the average kinetic energy per molecule is the same in both systems 

(8) At equilibrium, molecules with greater mass will have, on average, a greater kinetic energy 

(16) At equilibrium, more massive molecules will, on average, be slower than lighter molecules
