A cylinder of fixed capacity 44.8 litres contains helium gas at standard temperature and pressure. What is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of the gas in the cylinder by 15°C ? (R = 8.31 K mol –1 K –1 )
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Since one mole of any ideal gas at NTP occupies a volume of 
litre.
Therefore, cylinder of fixed capacity 
litre must contain 3 moles of helium at NTP.
For helium, 
(monoatomic)
Heat needed to raise the temperature,
Q = number of moles × molar specific heat × raise in temperature.
