What is the ratio of specific heats for a monatomic gas?(a) 5/3(b) 5/2(c) 7/5(d) 9/5This question was posed to me in exam.My question is based upon Kinetic Theory in section Kinetic Theory of Physics – Class 11

Answer»

Right ANSWER is (a) 5/3

The explanation: The VALUE of Cv for a monatomic GAS is 3/2 R and

CP is 5/2 R.

Thus the value of γ is:

CP/CV= 5/3.
