    A diatomic gas is heated at constant pressure. What fraction of the heat energy is used to increase the internal energy?

    A)  \[\frac{3}{5}\]                                  

    B)  \[\frac{3}{7}\]

    C)   \[\frac{5}{7}\]                                 

    D) \[\frac{5}{9}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     Fraction of supplied energy which increases the internal energy is given by \[f=\frac{\Delta U}{(\Delta {{Q}_{p}})}=\frac{{{(\Delta Q)}_{V}}}{{{(\Delta {{Q}_{p}})}_{p}}}\]                 \[=\frac{\mu {{C}_{V}}\Delta T}{\mu {{C}_{P}}\Delta T}=\frac{1}{\gamma }\] For diatomic gas\[\gamma =\frac{7}{5}\] \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[f=\frac{5}{7}\]
