The number of independent ways in which a molecule of gas can move is called the degree of freedom. It is an independent physical parameter in the formal description of the state of a physical system.
Solution
We know that
Hydrogen
The degree of freedom is =5
Helium
The degree of freedom is =3
UH=5/2n1R1T
UHe=3/2n2R2T
UH=UHe
5/2n1R1T = 3/2n2R2T
n1 / n2 = 3 x 2 /5
n1 / n2 = 6 /5
