CP > CV always. True or False?(a) True(b) FalseThis question was posed to me in final exam.I'd like to ask this question from Thermal Properties of Matter in section Thermal Properties of Matter of Physics – Class 11

Answer»

Correct option is (a) True

To elaborate: When heat is added at constant pressure the heat is USED to INCREASE temperature and increase VOLUME or we can say does work. But when heat is added at constant volume the heat only INCREASES temperature and volume REMAINS the same (work = 0). So For the same rise in temperature at constant pressure we have to provide more heat.
