MCQ
A polyatomic ideal gas has $24$ vibrational modes. What is the value of $\gamma$ ?
  • $1.03$
  • B
    $1.30$
  • C
    $1.37$
  • D
    $10.3$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$1.03$
a
Since each vibrational mode has 2 degrees of

freedom hence total vibrational degrees of

freedom $=48$

$f=3+3+48=54$

$\gamma=1+\frac{2}{ f }=\frac{28}{27}=1.03$
