Vedclass · Answer

(B) The adiabatic elasticity of a gas is given by $E_{	ext{adiabatic}} = \gamma P$,where $\gamma$ is the adiabatic index and $P$ is the pressure.The isothermal elasticity of a gas is given by $E_{	ext{isothermal}} = P$.The ratio of adiabatic to isothermal elasticity is $\frac{E_{	ext{adiabatic}}}{E_{	ext{isothermal}}} = \frac{\gamma P}{P} = \gamma$.For a triatomic gas (non-linear),the degrees of freedom $f = 6$. The adiabatic index $\gamma = 1 + \frac{2}{f} = 1 + \frac{2}{6} = 1 + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{4}{3}$.Therefore,the ratio is $\frac{4}{3}$.

The ratio of the specific heats $\frac{C_{p}}{C_{v}}=\gamma$ in terms of degrees of freedom $n$ is given by

$1 \, mole$ of a gas requires $40 \, calories$ of heat to raise its temperature from $20^{\circ}C$ to $30^{\circ}C$ at constant pressure. How many calories of heat are required to raise the temperature of the same gas by the same amount at constant volume? $(R = 2 \, cal \, mol^{-1} K^{-1})$

$C_v$ and $C_p$ denote the molar specific heat capacities of a gas at constant volume and constant pressure,respectively. Then

When heat $Q$ is supplied to a diatomic gas of rigid molecules at constant volume,its temperature increases by $\Delta T$. The heat required to produce the same change in temperature at constant pressure is:
