An engine takes in $5$ moles of air at $20\,^{\circ}C$ and $1\,atm$,and compresses it adiabatically to $1/10^{\text{th}}$ of the original volume. Assuming air to be a diatomic ideal gas made up of rigid molecules,the change in its internal energy during this process is $X\,kJ$. The value of $X$ to the nearest integer is

$5$ moles of Hydrogen $\left(\gamma=\frac{7}{5}\right)$ initially at $S.T.P.$ are compressed adiabatically so that its temperature becomes $400^{\circ} C$. The increase in the internal energy of the gas in kilo-joules is $\left(R=8.30 \ J \ mol^{-1} \ K^{-1}\right)$.
