उत्तर
Cp − Cv
For an ideal gas, Cp − Cv = R , where Cv and Cp denote the molar heat capacities of an ideal gas at constant volume and constant pressure, respectively and R is the gas constant whos value is 8.314 J/K. Therefore, Cp − Cv is a constant. On the other hand, the ratio of these two varies as the atomicity of the gas changes. Also, their sum and product are not constant.
