  • A
    $1 - \frac{1}{\gamma }$
  • B
    $1 + \frac{1}{\gamma }$
  • C
    $1 - \frac{2}{\gamma }$

View Solution

An ideal gas exists in a state with pressure $P_0$, volume $V_0$. It is isothermally expanded to $4$ times its initial volume $(V_0)$, then isobarically compressed to its original volume. Finally, the system is heated isochorically to bring it to its initial state. The amount of heat exchanged in this process is
