Degree of freedom for polyatomic gas

Degree of freedom for polyatomic gas

Options

  1. A≥4\geq 4
  2. B≥5\geq 5
  3. C≥6\geq 6
  4. D≥7\geq 7

Correct answer

C. ≥6\geq 6

Step-by-step solution

A polyatomic gas has 3 translational. 3 rotational degrees of freedom and a certain number (f)(f) of vibrational modes. Hence, the degree of freedom for polyatomic gas is ≥6\geq 6.
