Gases - Molar Specific Heats
Molar specific heats for some common gases at constant volume.
Approximate molar specific heats at constant volume at room temperature for some common gases:
Gas | Specific Heat - Cv - (kcal/kmole K) |
---|---|
Argon (Ar) | 3.0 |
Carbon monoxide (CO) | 5.02 |
Chlorine (Cl2) | 6.01 |
Ethane (C2H6) | 10.3 |
Ether ((C2H5)2O) | 30.8 |
Helium (He) | 3.02 |
Hydrogen (H2) | 4.88 |
Mercury vapor (Hg) | 3.0 |
Nitrogen (N2) | 6.97 |
Oxygen (O2) | 4.99 |
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) | 7.5 |
- 1 kcal = 4186.8 J = 426.9 kp m = 1.163x10-3 kWh = 3.088 ft lbf = 3.9683 Btu = 1000 cal
