Now Y(=Cp/Cv)
Where CP = specific heat at constant pressure
CV = Specific heat at constant volume.
and n = Degrees of freedom → is the total number of co-ordinates or independent quantities required to describe completely the position and configuration of the system.
Suppose, a polyatomic gas molecule has ‘n’ degrees of freedom.
∴ Total energy associated with a gram molecule of the gas i. e.
