Supposing the distance between the atoms of a diatomic gas to be constant, its specific heat at constant volume per mole (gram mole) is

A

`5/2 R`

B

`7/2 R`

C

R

D

`3/2 R`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

As f=5
`dU =nC_(v) dT =(nfRdT)/(2)`
`C_v=(fR)/2`
`C_(v)=(5R)/2`
