Question
An ideal gas undergoes a quasi static, reversible process in which its molar heat capacity $C$ remains constant. If during this process the relation of pressure $P$ and volume $V$ is given by $P{V^n} = $ constant, then $n$ is given by (Here ${C_p}$ and ${C_v}$ are molar specific heat at constant pressure and constant volume, respectively:
$n = {{{C_p} - C} \over {C - {C_v}}}$
$n = {{C - {C_v}} \over {C - {C_p}}}$
$n = {{{C_p}} \over {{C_v}}}$
$n = {{C - {C_p}} \over {C - {C_v}}}$
