Question:medium

A mixture of one mole of monoatomic gas and one mole of diatomic gas (rigid) are kept at room temperature (\( 27^\circ \text{C} \)). The ratio of specific heat of gases at constant volume respectively is:

Show Hint

The specific heat of a gas increases with the number of degrees of freedom. Monoatomic gases have only translational motion, while diatomic gases have translational and rotational motion, resulting in a higher specific heat.
