4.0 gm of gas occupies 22.4 litres at NTP. The specific heat capacity of the gas at a constant volume is  5.0 JK−1mol−1. If the speed of sound in the gas at NTP is 952 ms−1, then the molar heat capacity at constant pressure will be:
(R=8.31 JK−1mol−1

1. 8.0 JK−1mol−1  2. 7.5 JK−1mol−1
3. 7.0 JK−1mol−1 4. 8.5 JK−1mol−1
