The specific heat capacity of a monatomic gas at constant volume is \(\mathrm{x} \%\) of its specific heat capacity at constant pressure. Then \(x=\)

  1. A \(40\)
  2. B \(50\)
  3. C \(60\)
  4. D \(75\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(60\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Specific heat capacity at constant volume \(=\mathrm{x} \% \mathrm{x}\) specific heat capacity at constant pressure \(\begin{aligned} & C_V=x \% \times C_P \\ & \frac{3}{2} R=x \% \times \frac{5}{2} R \Rightarrow x=60 \end{aligned}\)
