Specific Heats of Gases - Cp, Cv, γ & Mayer's Relation

A gas has $n$ degrees of freedom. The ratio of specific heat of gas at constant volume to the specific heat of gas at constant pressure will be:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

$C_v = \frac{n}{2}R$ , $C_p = \frac{n+2}{2}R$ .
$\frac{C_v}{C_p} = \frac{n}{n+2}$
So the answer is (a) $\frac{n}{n+2}$ .
