During an adiabatic process,the pressure of a gas is found to be proportional to the cube of its temperature. The ratio of $\frac{C_P}{C_V}$ for the gas is

$A$ cylinder with adiabatic walls is closed at both ends and is divided into two compartments by a frictionless adiabatic piston. Ideal gas is filled in both (left and right) compartments at the same $P, V, T$. Heating is started from the left side until the pressure changes to $\frac{27P}{8}$. If the initial volume of each compartment was $9 \text{ litres}$, then the final volume in the right-hand side compartment is . . . . . . litres. (for this ideal gas $\gamma = C_P/C_V = 1.5$)
