Homework Help Overview
The discussion revolves around determining the Cp/Cv value for water vapor and hydrogen gas at a temperature of 2755 K, with a specified molar ratio of H2O to H2. Participants are seeking specific heat capacity values for water vapor at this temperature.
Discussion Character
- Exploratory, Conceptual clarification, Mathematical reasoning
Approaches and Questions Raised
- The original poster attempts to find Cp and Cv values for water vapor at 2755 K and expresses a desire for accurate answers. Some participants provide equations and calculations for Cp, while others mention the absence of Cv equations in their references.
Discussion Status
Participants are actively sharing equations and calculations related to Cp for water vapor, with some suggesting approximations for Cv. There is a mix of approaches being explored, and while some values have been calculated, there is no explicit consensus on the final Cp/Cv ratio.
Contextual Notes
One participant notes that the equation for Cp is valid only within a specific temperature range, raising questions about its applicability at 2755 K. Additionally, there is mention of unit conversions that need to be considered in the calculations.
