The adiabatic bulk modulus of a perfect gas at pressure $P$ is given by:

The initial pressure and volume of a given mass of an ideal gas (with $\frac{C_{p}}{C_{V}}=\gamma$),taken in a cylinder fitted with a piston,are $p_{0}$ and $V_{0}$ respectively. At this stage,the gas has the same temperature as that of the surrounding medium,which is $T_{0}$. It is adiabatically compressed to a volume equal to $\frac{V_{0}}{2}$. Subsequently,the gas is allowed to come to thermal equilibrium with the surroundings. What is the heat released to the surrounding?

$A$ monoatomic gas $\left(\gamma=\frac{5}{3}\right)$ at a pressure of $4 \text{ atm}$ is compressed adiabatically so that its temperature rises from $27^{\circ} \text{C}$ to $327^{\circ} \text{C}$. The pressure of the gas in its final state is
