One mole of an ideal gas expands adiabatically at constant pressure such that its temperature \(\mathrm{T} \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{\mathrm{V}}}\). The value of \(\gamma\) for the gas is \((\gamma=\frac{C_p}{C_v}, V=\) Volumeof thegas\()\)

  1. A 1.8
  2. B 1.5
  3. C 1.3
  4. D 1.4
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 1.5

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For an adiabatic process at constant pressure, we have
\(\mathrm{TV}^{\gamma-1}=\text { constant }\)
Given, \(\mathrm{TV}^{1 / 2}=\) constant
Hence, \(\gamma-1=\frac{1}{2} \quad\) or \(\quad \gamma=1.5\)
