    The ratio of specific heats for oxygen is 1.4. Density of oxygen at STP \[=\text{ }1.44\text{ }kg/{{m}^{3}}.\] If atmospheric pressure is \[1.013\times {{10}^{5}}N/{{m}^{2}},\]the specific heat at constant volume is:

    A) \[257.7\text{ }J\text{ }k{{g}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]                     

    B)  \[644.3\text{ }J\text{ }k{{g}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]

    C) \[8.36\text{ }J\text{ }k{{g}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]                        

    D)  \[901.2\text{ }J\text{ }k{{g}^{-1}}{{K}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Given: \[\frac{{{C}_{P}}}{{{C}_{V}}}=1.4,\,\,T=273K\,\]                  ?(i) \[p=1.013\times {{10}^{5}}\,N/{{m}^{2}}\] \[\rho =1.44\,kg/{{m}^{3}}\]                 So,          \[V=\frac{1}{1.44}{{m}^{3}}\] Also from Mayers formula, \[{{C}_{P}}-{{C}_{V}}=R=\frac{PV}{T}\]                                  ?(ii) Putting the given values in Eq. (ii) and  from Eq. (i) \[1.4{{C}_{V}}-{{C}_{V}}=\frac{1.013\times {{10}^{5}}\times 1}{1.44\times 273}\] \[0.4{{C}_{V}}=257.7\] \[{{C}_{V}}=644.25\,\,J/kg-K\]
