I got injured while playing football and had to miss a Thermodynamics-I lecture. Got the notes afterwards but they tend to make things more complicated. The notes starts with :-
Pv=RT
Which R is this the Universal Gas Constant or the Individual Gas Constant ?
Is the Molar Volume and Specific Volume same thing?
Then it says R = \frac{R_{u}}{Mol Wt.}, which seems alright.
Then it says that :-
For EE :-
R = \frac {1545}{Mol Wt.}
For SI :-
R = \frac {8314}{Mol Wt.}
Question is that I have always seen the Molar Gas Constant to be 8.134 JK^{-1}mol^{-1}. How does 8314 come ?
I'll be obliged if someone can give systematic answers. this way my confusion will be eliminated.
(looks like there's some problem with LaTex)
