An ideal diatomic gas is heated at constant pressure. What is the fraction of total energy applied,which increases the internal energy of the gas?

In the case of a diatomic gas,the fraction of heat supplied at constant pressure that is used for the expansion of the gas is:

Molar specific heat of oxygen at constant pressure $C_p = 7.2 \, cal/mol \cdot ^\circ C$ and $R = 8.3 \, J/mol \cdot K$. At constant volume,$5 \, mol$ of oxygen is heated from $10^\circ C$ to $20^\circ C$. The quantity of heat required is approximately ........ $cal$.

When an ideal diatomic gas is heated at constant pressure,the fraction of the heat energy supplied which increases the internal energy of the gas is:
