$A$ monoatomic ideal gas is compressed adiabatically to $12.5 \%$ of its initial volume. If the initial temperature of the gas is $T_1 \ K$ and the final temperature is $xT_1 \ K$,the value of $x$ is:

The initial pressure and volume of a given mass of an ideal gas (with $\frac{C_{p}}{C_{V}}=\gamma$), taken in a cylinder fitted with a piston, are $p_{0}$ and $V_{0}$ respectively. At this stage, the gas has the same temperature as that of the surrounding medium, which is $T_{0}$. It is adiabatically compressed to a volume equal to $\frac{V_{0}}{2}$. Subsequently, the gas is allowed to come to thermal equilibrium with the surroundings. What is the heat released to the surrounding?

One mole of an ideal gas $(C_p/C_v = \gamma)$ at absolute temperature $T_1$ is adiabatically compressed from an initial pressure $P_1$ to a final pressure $P_2$. The resulting temperature $T_2$ of the gas is given by

The initial pressure and volume of an ideal gas are $P_0$ and $V_0$. The final pressure of the gas when the gas is suddenly compressed to volume $\frac{V_0}{4}$ will be (Given $\gamma =$ ratio of specific heats at constant pressure and at constant volume).
