using euipartion of energy, the specific heat `("in" jkg^(-1)K^(-1)`of aluminium at room temperature can be estimated to be (atomic weigh of aluminium=27)

A

`410`

B

`925`

C

`25`

D

`1850`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Energy `E = (nfRT)/(2) = (m)/(M_(0))(6RT)/(2) … (i)`
(degree of freedom for Al = `6` , `M_(0)= "molecular mass of Al")` and `Q =msT`…..(ii) From (i) & (ii) `(3mRT)/(M_(0)) = msT`
