A monatomic gas expands at constant pressure on heating. The percentage of heat supplied that increases the internal energy of the gas and that is involved in the expansion is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
The fraction of energy supplied for increment in internal energy is
(as 
for monatomic gas)
Therefore, the percentage energy is 
The fraction of energy supplied for the external work done is given by 
Therefore, the percentage energy supplied is
