Question
For a solid with a small expansion coefficient:
- Cp - Cv = R
- Cp = Cv
- Cp is slightly greater than Cv
- Cp is slightly less than Cv
✓
Answer
- Cp is slightly greater than Cv
Explanation:
For a solid with a small expansion coefficient, work done in a process will also be small. Thus, the specific heat depends slightly on the process. Therefore, Cp is slightly greater than Cv.
