Answer» Correct Answer - B b. Ideal gas equation for `m` grams of gas is `PV = mr T` (where `r=` specific gas constant) or `P = (m)/(V) rT = rho rT` `implies r = (P)/(rho T) = (1.013 xx 10^(5))/(0.795 xx 273) = 466.7` Specific heat at constant volume `c_(v) = (r )/(gamma - 1) = (466.7)/((4)/(3) -1) = 1400 J//kg-K` `(gamma = 4//3` for polyatomic gas) |
