Question:medium

The ratio of the work done, change in internal energy and heat absorbed when a diatomic gas expands at constant pressure is

Show Hint

For any ideal gas process, the ratio \(W : \Delta U : Q_p\) in an isobaric expansion is always \( (C_p - C_v) : C_v : C_p \). For a diatomic gas, this is \(R : \frac{5}{2}R : \frac{7}{2}R\), which simplifies to \(2:5:7\).
