One mole of an ideal monoatomic gas expands along the polytropic process $PV^3 = \text{constant}$ from volume $V_1$ to $V_2$. The molar specific heat capacity for this process is given by $C = C_V + \frac{R}{1-n}$. The total heat absorbed during the process can be expressed as:

$P_i, V_i$ and $P_f, V_f$ are initial and final pressures and volumes of a gas in a thermodynamic process respectively. If $PV^n = \text{constant}$, then the amount of work done is
