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

For a gas, $\frac{R}{C_V} = 0.4$ , where $R$ is universal gas constant and $C_V$ is the molar specific heat at constant volume. The gas is made up of molecules, which are

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

$C_v = \frac{R}{0.4} = \frac{5}{2}R \Rightarrow f = 5$ .
So the answer is (b) rigid diatomic.
