Let $\gamma_1$ be the ratio of molar specific heat at constant pressure and molar specific heat at constant volume of a monoatomic gas and $\gamma_2$ be the similar ratio of a diatomic gas. Considering the diatomic gas molecule as a rigid rotator,the ratio $\frac{\gamma_2}{\gamma_1}$ is

  • A
    $\frac{37}{21}$
  • B
    $\frac{27}{35}$
  • C
    $\frac{21}{25}$
  • D
    $\frac{35}{27}$

Molar specific heat of oxygen at constant pressure $C_p = 7.2 \, cal/mol \cdot ^\circ C$ and $R = 8.3 \, J/mol \cdot K$. At constant volume,$5 \, mol$ of oxygen is heated from $10^\circ C$ to $20^\circ C$. The quantity of heat required is approximately ........ $cal$.

The specific heat at constant pressure and at constant volume for an ideal gas are $C_p$ and $C_v$,and its adiabatic and isothermal elasticities are $E_{\phi}$ and $E_{\theta}$ respectively. The ratio of $E_{\phi}$ to $E_{\theta}$ is

If $\gamma$ is the ratio of specific heats and $R$ is the universal gas constant,then the molar specific heat at constant volume $C_{V}$ is given by

The figure shows the variation in heat supplied $(Q)$ with the change in temperature $(\Delta T)$ in an isobaric process for a monoatomic $(M)$,diatomic $(D)$,and a polyatomic $(P)$ gas. The initial state of all the gases is the same,and the scales for the two axes coincide. Ignoring vibrational degrees of freedom,the lines $a, b,$ and $c$ respectively correspond to

The figure shows the graph of logarithmic reading of pressure and volume for two ideal gases $A$ and $B$ undergoing an adiabatic process. From the figure, it can be concluded that:
