For two different gases $X$ and $Y,$ having degrees of freedom $f_1$ and $f_2$ and molar heat capacities at constant volume $C_{v_1}$ and $C_{v_2}$ respectively, for an adiabatic process, the $\ln P$ versus $\ln V$ graph is plotted as shown:

  • A
    $f_1 > f_2$
  • B
    $f_2 > f_1$
  • C
    $C_{v_2} = C_{v_1}$
  • D
    $C_{v_1} > C_{v_2}$
