Specific Heats of Gases - Cp, Cv, γ & Mayer's Relation

For a gas molecule with 6 degrees of freedom, which one of the following relation between gas constant ' $R$ ' and molar specific heat ' $C_v$ ' is correct?

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

$C_v = \frac{f}{2}R = \frac{6}{2}R = 3R$
$R = \frac{C_v}{3}$
So the answer is (a) $R = \frac{C_v}{3}$ .
