What is the specific heat capacity of a monatomic gas?
Think about the degrees of freedom.
What is the molar specific heat of diatomic gases?
Consider the extra degrees of freedom due to rotation.
What is the Cv for monatomic gases?
Recall the degrees of freedom for monatomic gases.
True or False: The molar specific heat at constant pressure for diatomic gases is always equal to (7/2)R.
Consider the degrees of freedom in diatomic gases.
A cylinder contains 1 mole of a diatomic gas. If the temperature is increased, calculate the change in internal energy assuming Cv.
Use the specific heat value for diatomic gases.
If you mix equal volumes of a monatomic and a diatomic gas, predict how this affects the specific heat of the mixture.
Think about how mixture properties combine.
