Consider two ideal diatomic gases A and B at same temperature T. Molecules of the gas A are rigid and have a mass m. Molecules of the gas B have an additional vibrational mode and have a mass . The ratio of the specific heats of gas A and B respectively is:
Option: 1 5:9
Option: 2 7:9
Option: 3 3:5
Option: 4 5:7
Molar heat capacity of A at constant volume
Molar heat capacity of B at constant volume
Dividing both
Hence the correct option is (4).
