Diatomic gases have 5 degrees of freedom, if vibrational mode is neglected. And if vibrational mode is also considered then degrees of freedom of diatomic gas molecules are 7.
For Hydrogen  γ=1+2f=1+25=75

For Helium γ=1+2f=1+23=53

For gas X (vibrational mode also considered) f = 7. 

γ=1+2f=1+27=97  So, 75,53,97
