The kinetic energy or the total internal energy of one mole of a gas is
U = (3/2) RT
If CV is molar specific heat at constant volume then
CV= dU/dT
= (3/2)R
Now for an ideal gas
CP - CV = R
CP - molar specific heat capacity at constant pressure
CP = (3/2) R + R
= (5/2) R
U = (3/2) RT
If CV is molar specific heat at constant volume then
CV= dU/dT
= (3/2)R
Now for an ideal gas
CP - CV = R
CP - molar specific heat capacity at constant pressure
CP = (3/2) R + R
= (5/2) R
