View Solution

For a certain gas,the ratio of specific heats is given to be $\gamma = 1.5$. For this gas,

$50 \, cal$ of heat is required to raise the temperature of $1 \, mol$ of an ideal gas from $20^{\circ} C$ to $25^{\circ} C$,while the pressure of the gas is kept constant. The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the same gas through the same temperature range at constant volume is ........ $cal$ $(R = 2 \, cal / mol \cdot K)$.
