Question

state the law of equipartition of energy and using this find adiabatic expansion coefficient of diatomic gas​

Answer 1

Specific Heats of Gases. The ratio of the specific heats γ = CP/CV is a factor in adiabatic engine processes and in determining the speed of sound in a gas. This ratio γ = 1.66 for an ideal monoatomic gas and γ = 1.4 for air, which is predominantly a diatomic gas.
