Question
The specific heat of an ideal gas at constant volume is Cv and R is the universal gas constant. What are the degrees of freedom of the ideal gas?
Solution
Given,
Specific heat of an ideal gas = CV
Gas constant = R
So, degree of freedom of the ideal gas = 2Cv/R.
Specific heat of an ideal gas = CV
Gas constant = R
So, degree of freedom of the ideal gas = 2Cv/R.
