Explanation: A monatomic gas has 3 translational degrees of freedom.
2. What is the ratio of specific heats for a monatomic gas?
a) 5/3
b) 5/2
c) 7/5
d) 9/5
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The value of Cv for a monatomic gas is 3/2 R and
CP is 5/2 R.
Thus the value of γ is:
CP/CV= 5/3.
Explanation: The value of Cv for a monatomic gas is 3/2 R and
CP is 5/2 R.
Thus the value of γ is:
CP/CV= 5/3.
3. How many degrees of freedom are there in a diatomic gas?
a) 2
b) 5
c) 3
d) 1
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: A diatomic gas has 3 translational degrees of freedom and 2 rotational degrees of freedom. Thus, the total number of degrees of freedom is 5.
