    In the case of a diatomic gas, if heat is given at constant pressure then the part of energy which is used for expansion of gas is

    A)  \[\frac{2}{7}\]  

    B)  \[\frac{2}{5}\]

    C)  \[\frac{3}{7}\]                                  

    D)  \[\frac{3}{5}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    Let \[\Delta W\]is the energy used for expansion = pdV=RdT \[\Delta Q=\]heat supplied to diatomic gas at constant pressure \[={{C}_{p}}dT\] \[=\frac{7}{2}RdT\]         \[\left( \because \,{{C}_{p}}=\frac{7}{2}R \right)\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{\Delta W}{\Delta Q}=\frac{RdT}{\frac{7}{2}RdT}=\frac{2}{7}\]
