The ratio of specific heat at constant volume $ {{C}_{V}} $ for monoatomic gas to that of polyatomic gas i.e. $ {{C}_{V}} $ (monoatomic)/ $ {{C}_{V}} $ (polyatomic) is
The gas laws were developed at the end of the 18th century, when scientists began to realize that relationships between pressure, volume and temperature of a sample of gas could be obtained which would hold to approximation for all gases.
The five gas laws are:
Boyle’s Law, which provides a relationship between the pressure and the volume of a gas.
Charles’s Law, which provides a relationship between the volume occupied by a gas and the absolute temperature.
Gay-Lussac’s Law, which provides a relationship between the pressure exerted by a gas on the walls of its container and the absolute temperature associated with the gas.
Avogadro’s Law, which provides a relationship between the volume occupied by a gas and the amount of gaseous substance.
The Combined Gas Law (or the Ideal Gas Law), which can be obtained by combining the four laws listed above.
