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

An ideal gas has molecules with 5 degrees of freedom. The ratio of specific heats at constant pressure (Cp) and at constant volume (Cv) is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

$\gamma = 1 + \frac{2}{f} = 1 + \frac{2}{5}$
So the answer is (d) $\frac{7}{5}$ .
