The molar specific heat of a monoatomic gas at constant pressure is (Universal gas constant $R = 8.3 \,J \,mol^{-1} \,K^{-1}$)

For an ideal non-rigid diatomic gas,the value of $\frac{R}{C_V}$ is nearly,given that $\gamma = \frac{C_P}{C_V} = \frac{9}{7}$.

What is the significance of the heat capacity ratio $\gamma = \frac{C_{P}}{C_{V}}$ for a gas?
