Why do we generally consider two specific heats for a gas?

Description : Why do we generally consider two specific heats for a gas?

Last Answer : Why do we generally consider two specific heats for a gas?

For perfect gas a. cp – cv = R b. cp + cv = R c. cp / cv = R d. cp X cv = R Where cp & cv are specific heats at constant pressure and volume.
