Class 11PhysicsKinetic Theory of GasesMolar Specific Heat of gas and relation between them (Mayer's formula)
MediumThe molar specific heats of an ideal gas at constant pressure and constant volume are denoted by $C_p$ and $C_v$ respectively. If $\gamma = \frac{C_p}{C_v}$ and $R$ is the universal gas constant,then $C_v$ is equal to:
- A$\frac{1 + \gamma}{1 - \gamma}$
- B$\frac{R}{\gamma - 1}$
- C$\frac{\gamma - 1}{R}$
- D$\gamma R$
