Homework Statement
130 J of energy is supplied as heat to 3.00 moles of an ideal gas at constant pressure, the temperature rises by 4.00 K.
Calculate the molar heat capacity at constant pressure, CP,m and the molar heat capacity at constant volume, CV,m for the gas.
Is the gas monatomic or diatomic?
Homework Equations
Cp= Q/ T
Cp= Cv + nR
Cp,m = Cv,m +R
The Attempt at a Solution
Cp= Q/ T
= 130/ 4= 32.5
Cp= Cv + nR
32.5 = Cv +3 (8.314)
Cv= 7.558
heat capacity at constant pressure Cp = 32.5
at capacity at constant volume Cv = 7.558
how do i go from here to calculate molar heat capacity..
