If `C_(p) and C_(v)` denote the specific heats (per unit mass of an ideal gas of molecular weight `M`), then where `R` is the molar gas constant.A. `C_(p)-C_(v)= R//M^(2)`B. `C_(p)-C_(v)=R`C. `C_(p)-C_(v)=RM`D. `C_(p)-C_(v)= MR`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
We know that molor specific heat of a gas is molecular weight times specific heat per unit mass of a gas. If `C_(v) and C_(p)` are the molar specific heats of the ideal gas at constant volume and constant pressure respectively, then
`C_(p)= M c_(p)` and `C_(v)= M c_(v)`
But `C_(p)-C_(v)= R`
`:. M c_(p)-M c_(v)=R or c_(p)-c_(v)=R/M`
