The figure shows two paths for the change of state of a gas from A to B. The ratio of molar heat capacities in path 1 and path 2 is

A

`lt1`

B

`lt1`

C

`1`

D

Data insufficient

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`C=(Q)/(nDeltaT)`
or `C prop Q`
`DeltaU` is same. But `W_1ltW_2` as area under p-V graph is less.
Hence, `Q_1ltQ_2`
or `C_1ltC_2`
`:.` `C_1/C_2lt1`
