An amount `Q` of heat is added to a monoatomic ideal gas in a process in which the gas performs work `Q/2` on its surrounding. Find the molar heat capacity for the process.A. `2R`B. `3R`C. `4R`D. `6R` |
Answer» Correct Answer - B First law of thermodynamics `Q = W + Delta U` `Q = Q/2 + Delta U` `implies Delta U = 3nRDeltaT` `implies nCDeltaT = 3nRDeltaT` `C = 3R` |
