Question

One mole of a gas occupies $$22.4\,lit$$  at $$N.T.P.$$  Calculate the difference between two molar specific heats of the gas. $$J = 4200\,J/kcal.$$

A. $$1.979\,k\,cal/kmol\,K$$  
B. $$2.378\,k\,cal/kmol\,K$$
C. $$4.569\,k\,cal/kmol\,K$$
D. $$3.028\,k\,cal/kmol\,K$$
Answer :   $$1.979\,k\,cal/kmol\,K$$
Solution :
$$V = 22.4\,litre = 22.4 \times {10^{ - 3}}{m^3},J = 4200\,J/kcal$$
by ideal gas equation for one mole of a gas,
$$\eqalign{ & R = \frac{{PV}}{T} = \frac{{1.013 \times {{10}^5} \times 22.4 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}}{{273}} \cr & {C_p} - {C_v} = \frac{R}{J} = \frac{{1.013 \times {{10}^5} \times 22.4}}{{273 \times 4200}} = 1.979\,kcal/kmol\,K \cr} $$
