If for a gas `R/C_v = 0.67` , this gas is made up of molecules, which are :

A

monatomic

B

diatomic

C

polyatomic

D

mixture of diatomic and polyatomic molecules

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

For a gas, `(R)/(C_(V))=gamma-1`
`therefore 0.67=gamma-1orgamma=1.67`
Hence the gas is monatomic.
