Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the ratio \( \frac{C_p}{C_v} \) for a monatomic ideal gas, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine \( C_v \) for a monatomic ideal gas For a monatomic ideal gas, the number of degrees of freedom \( F \) is 3 (all translational). The formula for the molar heat capacity at constant volume \( C_v \) is given by: \[ C_v = \frac{F}{2} R \] ...
