Question

what is adiabatic constant for gas if each molecule of the gas has five degrees of freedom?

Answer 1

Answer:

it is 7/5

Explanation:

the formula for finding adiabatic constant (gamma) is

$\gamma = 1 + (2 \div f)$

where, f is the degree of freedom for a given gas molecule.

So,

$\gamma = 1 + (2 \div 5)$

$\gamma = 7 \div 5$

hope this helps :)
