For a gas `R/C_V` = 0.4, where R is the universal gas constant and C, is molar specific heat at constant volume. The gas is made up of molecules which are

A

rigid diatomic

B

monoatomic

C

non-rigid diatomic

D

polyatomic

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`(R)/(C_(v))=0.4`
`C_(v)=(R)/(0.4)=(10)/(4)R=(5)/(2)R`
