The molar specific heats of an ideal gas at constant pressure and volume are denoted by \[{{C}_{p}}\] and \[{{C}_{V}}\] respectively. If \[\gamma =\frac{{{C}_{p}}}{{{C}_{V}}}\] and R is the universal gas constant, then \[{{C}_{V}}\] is equal to

A) \[\frac{1+\gamma }{1-\gamma }\]

B) \[\frac{R}{(\gamma -1)}\]

C) \[\frac{(\gamma -1)}{R}\]

D) \[\gamma R\]
