Choose the statement(s) that is/are true about the ratio \frac{c_p}{c_v} c p c v for a gas? (ii) this ratio is the same for all gases. (ii) this ratio has a value 1.67 for a monatomic gas (iii) this ratio has an approximate value of 1.4 for diatomic gases. (iii) this ratio has a value 8.314\: j. mol^{-1}.k^{-1}

(i) false

(ii) true

(iii) true

(iv) false

Explanation:

(i) The ratio of Cp and Cv is not constant for all the gases. It is because the value of cp and Cv is different for monoatomic, diatomic and polyatomic gases.

So, this is false.

(ii) For monoatomic gas

Cp = 5R/2, Cv = 3R/2

So, thier ratio

Cp / Cv = 5 / 3 = 1.67

This statement is true.

(iii) for diatomic gases

Cp = 7R/2, Cv = 5R/2

Cp / Cv = 7 / 5 = 1.4

This statement is true.

(iv) It is false.

the answer is 3.1 his answer is wrong mines is right

graph question answered .. you think better when you are relaxed and happy
