Write the degree of freedom for a polyatomic gas.

$\gamma_{A}$ is the specific heat ratio of a monoatomic gas $A$ having $3$ translational degrees of freedom. $\gamma_{B}$ is the specific heat ratio of a polyatomic gas $B$ having $3$ translational,$3$ rotational degrees of freedom,and $1$ vibrational mode. If $\frac{\gamma_{A}}{\gamma_{B}} = (1 + \frac{1}{n})$,then the value of $n$ is . . . . . . .

The number of vibrational degrees of freedom of a diatomic molecule is

For a gas, $\frac{R}{C_v} = 0.4$, where $R$ is the universal gas constant and $C_v$ is the molar specific heat at constant volume. The gas is made up of molecules which are
