Let $\gamma_1$ be the ratio of molar specific heat at constant pressure and molar specific heat at constant volume of a monoatomic gas and $\gamma_2$ be the similar ratio of a diatomic gas. Considering the diatomic gas molecule as a rigid rotator,the ratio $\frac{\gamma_1}{\gamma_2}$ is

  • A
    $\frac{27}{35}$
  • B
    $\frac{35}{27}$
  • C
    $\frac{25}{21}$
  • D
    $\frac{21}{25}$
