$40 \, \text{calories}$ of heat is needed to raise the temperature of $1 \, \text{mole}$ of an ideal monoatomic gas from $20^{\circ}C$ to $30^{\circ}C$ at a constant pressure. The amount of heat required to raise its temperature over the same interval at a constant volume $(R = 2 \, \text{cal} \, \text{mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1})$ is ..... $\text{calories}$.

For a gas,$\frac{R}{C_{v}} = 0.67$. This gas is made up of molecules which are

For a monoatomic gas,work done at constant pressure is $W$. The heat supplied at constant volume for the same rise in temperature of the gas is

For hydrogen gas,$C_P - C_V = a$,and for oxygen gas,$C_P - C_V = b$. The relationship between $a$ and $b$ is given by: (where $C_P$ and $C_V$ are molar specific heats at constant pressure and constant volume,respectively.)

Given below are observations on molar specific heats at room temperature of some common gases.
Gas Molar specific heat $(C_v)$ $(cal\, mol^{-1}\, K^{-1})$
Hydrogen $4.87$
Nitrogen $4.97$
Oxygen $5.02$
Nitric oxide $4.99$
Carbon monoxide $5.01$
Chlorine $6.17$

The measured molar specific heats of these gases are markedly different from those for monatomic gases. Typically,molar specific heat of a monatomic gas is $2.92 \; cal/mol\; K$. Explain this difference. What can you infer from the somewhat larger (than the rest) value for chlorine?

If $C_p$ and $C_v$ are molar specific heats of an ideal gas at constant pressure and volume respectively,if $\gamma$ is the ratio of the two specific heats and $R$ is the universal gas constant,then $C_p$ is equal to
