Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the molar heat capacity \( C \) of an ideal gas undergoing a polytropic process described by the equation \( PV^n = \text{constant} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the First Law of Thermodynamics The first law of thermodynamics states: \[ Q = \Delta U + W \] where \( Q \) is the heat added to the system, \( \Delta U \) is the change in internal energy, and \( W \) is the work done by the gas. ...
