Explanation / Answer

Molar specific heat at constant volume Cv = 12.5 J/mol K

Molar specific heat at constant pressure Cp = 20.8 J/mol K

Heat capacity dQ/dT = 63.1 J/K

(a)

Number of moles n = (1/Cv)*(dQ/dT)

n = 0.08 x 63.1

n = 5.048 mol

(b)

Internal energy U = Cv n T

U = 12.5 x 5.048 x 299

U = 18.87 kJ

(c)

Heat capacity at constant pressure = n Cp = 5.048 x 20.8

= 105 J/K
