Solution

The correct option is D All of the above
The difference between the molar heat capacities at constant pressure and constant volume is equal to the ideal gas constant R.
Hence, (CpCv)=R
But, Cp=(HT)P and Cv=(UT)V
Hence, (HT)p(UT)v=R
The molar heat capacity at constant pressure is greater than the molar heat capacity at constant volume as can be seen from the previous relationship as the R value is positive.

During an isothermal process, the temperature remains constant. Hence, the internal energy of the system remains constant. Thus, for an ideal gas, the term (UV)T is equal to zero.
