$500 \text{ g}$ of a diatomic gas is enclosed at a pressure of $10^5 \text{ N m}^{-2}$. The density of the gas is $5 \text{ kg m}^{-3}$. The energy of one mole of the gas due to its thermal motion is [consider the gas molecule as a rigid rotator].

If the kinetic energy of a monoatomic gas molecule is $\frac{3}{2}PV$,then the kinetic energy of a diatomic gas molecule is:

Write the degrees of freedom for:
