Question 90 of 168

A polyatomic ideal gas has 2424 vibrational modes. What is the value of γ?\gamma ?

Show answer and solution

Answer: (A) 1.031.03

Since each vibrational mode has 22 degrees of freedom hence total vibrational degrees of freedom =48=48
f=3+3+48=54f=3+3+48=54
γ=1+2f=2827=1.03\gamma =1+\dfrac{2}{f}=\dfrac{28}{27}=1.03
