MCQ
For a solid with a small expansion coefficient$:$
  • A
    $C_p - C_v = R$
  • $C_p = C_v$
  • C
    $C_p$ is slightly greater than $C_v$
  • D
    $C_p$ is slightly less than $C_v$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$C_p = C_v$
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, $C_p$ is slightly greater than $C_{v.}$
