Question

For 1 mole of an ideal gas, which of the following relations between molar heat capacity at constant pressure ($C_p$) and constant volume ($C_v$) is universally true?

Prashant Kotian · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C. Mayer's relation for an ideal gas states that the molar heat capacity at constant pressure is strictly greater than at constant volume by the universal gas constant, expressed as .
