Molar heat capacity is directly related to

A

temperature

B

heat energy

C

molecular structure

D

mass

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
Since `C_(p)-C_(v)=R`
`(C_(p))/(C_(v))=gamma` or `C_(p)=gammaC_(v)`
`because C_(p)-C_(v)=R`
`C_(v)(gamma-1)=R`
`therefore C_(v)=(R)/((gamma-1))`
Also, `C_(p)=(gammaR)/((gamma-1))`
But R is universal constnat, the value of `gamma` depends upon molecular structure.
