$A$ given mass of a gas is compressed isothermally until its pressure is doubled. It is then allowed to expand adiabatically until its original volume is restored and its pressure is then found to be $0.75$ of its initial pressure. The ratio of the specific heats of the gas is approximately:

$A$ monoatomic gas at a pressure $P$,having a volume $V$ expands isothermally to a volume $4V$ and then adiabatically to volume $16V$. The final pressure of the gas is (Take $\gamma = \frac{5}{3}$)

One gram of a liquid is converted to vapour at $3 \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}$ pressure. If $10\%$ of the heat supplied is used for increasing the volume by $1600 \text{ cm}^3$ during this phase change, then the increase in internal energy in the process will be

Consider that an ideal gas ($n$ moles) is expanding in a process given by $P = f(V)$,which passes through a point $(V_0, P_0)$. Show that the gas is absorbing heat at $(P_0, V_0)$ if the slope of the curve $P = f(V)$ is larger than the slope of the adiabatic curve passing through $(P_0, V_0)$.

An ideal gas having pressure $P$, volume $V$ and temperature $T$ is expanded isothermally to a volume $3V$ and final pressure $P_I$. The same gas is expanded adiabatically to a volume $3V$, the final pressure being $P_A$. The ratio $P_A/P_I$ is $(C_P/C_V = \gamma)$.
