In the thermodynamic processes, which of the following statements is $NOT$ true?

For an ideal gas with initial pressure and volume $p_{i}$ and $V_{i}$ respectively, a reversible isothermal expansion occurs until its volume becomes $V_{0}$. Then, it is compressed to its original volume $V_{i}$ by a reversible adiabatic process. If the final pressure is $p_{f}$, then which of the following statement(s) is/are true?

Read the following statements:
$A.$ When the small temperature difference between a liquid and its surroundings is doubled,the rate of loss of heat of the liquid becomes twice.
$B.$ Two bodies $P$ and $Q$ having equal surface areas are maintained at temperatures $10^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$. The thermal radiation emitted in a given time by $P$ and $Q$ are in the ratio $1:1.15$.
$C.$ $A$ Carnot engine working between $100 K$ and $400 K$ has an efficiency of $75\%$.
$D.$ When the small temperature difference between a liquid and its surroundings is quadrupled,the rate of loss of heat of the liquid becomes twice.
