On the basis of kinetic theory of gases, the gas exerts pressure because its molecules:
  • A
    continuously lose their energy till it reaches wall.
  • B
    are attracted by the walls of container.
  • C
    continuously stick to the walls of container.
  • D
    suffer change in momentum when impinge on the walls of container.

    $Assertion :$ The ratio of $\frac{C_p}{C_v}$ for an ideal diatomic gas is less than that for an ideal monoatomic gas (where $C_p$ and $C_v$ have usual meaning).
    $Reason :$ The atoms of a monoatomic gas have less degrees of freedom as compared to molecules of the diatomic gas.
