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, (Cp−Cv)=R
But, Cp=(∂H∂T)P and Cv=(∂U∂T)V
Hence, (∂H∂T)p−(∂U∂T)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 (∂U∂V)T is equal to zero.
