The ammount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 mole of diatomic gas by `1^(@)C` at constant pressure is `60cal` . The amount of heat which goes as internal energy of the gas is nearly.A. `60Cal`B. `30Cal`C. `42.6Cal`D. `49.8Cal`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
For a diatomic gas `C_(p)=(7)/(2)R` and `C_(v)=(5)/(2)R`
Only `(5)/(7)=0.71` of energy supplied increases the internal
energy of the gas. The rest is used to do work against external pressure
`0.71xx60=42.6cal`
