The ratio of work done by an ideal monoatomic gas to the heat supplied to it in an isobaric process is
Options
- A2 5
- B3 2
- C3 5
- D2 3
Correct answer
A. 2 5
Step-by-step solution
Work done by an ideal daitomic gas is given by, W = ∆ Q - ∆ U ∆ Q = n C p ∆ T   w h e r e   C p   f o r   d i a t o m i c   g a s   i s   5 2 R ∆ U = n C v ∆ T   w h e r e   C v   f o r   d i a t o m i c   g a s   i s   3 2 R h e n c e   W = n 5 2 R ∆ T - n 3 2 R ∆ T = n R ∆ T 5 2 - 3 2 = n R ∆ T And heat supplies is given by, ( ∆ Q ) p = n C p ∆ T = n 5 2 R ∆ T He
