Question

The molar specific heat at constant pressure of an ideal gas is $$\left( {\frac{7}{2}} \right)R.$$  The ratio of specific heat at constant pressure to that at constant volume is

A. $$\frac{8}{7}$$
B. $$\frac{5}{7}$$
C. $$\frac{9}{7}$$
D. $$\frac{7}{5}$$  
Answer :   $$\frac{7}{5}$$
Solution :
$$\eqalign{ & {C_P} = \frac{7}{2}R;{C_V} = {C_P} - R = \frac{7}{2}R - R = \frac{5}{2}R \cr & \frac{{{C_P}}}{{{C_V}}} = \frac{{\frac{7}{2}R}}{{\frac{5}{2}R}} = \frac{7}{5} \cr} $$
