A monoatomic ideal gas is heated at constant pressure. The percentage of total heat used in changing the internal energy is
Options
- A30 %
- B40 %
- C50 %
- D60 %
Correct answer
D. 60 %
Step-by-step solution
For a monoatomic gas, = C_ P C _ V = 5 3 We know Q = nC _ p T and U = nC _ v T U= nC _ V ~T Q = nC _ p ~T = C _ V C _ P = 3 5 The percentage of total heat used in changing the internal energy is 3 5 100=60 % .
