To raise the temperature of a certain mass of gas by $50^{\circ} C$ at a constant pressure,$160$ calories of heat is required. When the same mass of gas is cooled by $100^{\circ} C$ at constant volume,$240$ calories of heat is released. How many degrees of freedom does each molecule of this gas have (assume gas to be ideal)?

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $6$
  • D
    $7$
