Q.

A hypothetical gas expands adiabatically such that its volume changes from 8 litres to 27 litres. If the ratio of final pressure of the gas to the initial pressure of the gas is 1681, then the ratio CPCV will be                        [2023]

1 43  
2 31  
3 12  
4 32  

Ans.

(1)

Let γ be the ratio of CpCv

Then for adiabatic process

PVγ=constant

PiPf=(VfVi)γ

8116=(278)γ

γ=43
