What is constant in an adiabatic process?

An ideal gas initially at $0^{\circ} C$ temperature, is compressed suddenly to one fourth of its volume. If the ratio of specific heat at constant pressure to that at constant volume is $3/2$, the change in temperature due to the thermodynamics process is . . . . . . $K.$

In an adiabatic change,the pressure $P$ and temperature $T$ of a monoatomic gas are related by the relation $P \propto T^C$,where $C$ equals

Two moles of a gas at a temperature of $327^{\circ} C$ expands adiabatically such that its volume increases by $700 \%$. If the ratio of the specific heat capacities of the gas is $\frac{4}{3}$,then the work done by the gas is (Universal gas constant $= 8.3 \ J \ mol^{-1} \ K^{-1}$) (in $kJ$)

Is it possible to increase the temperature of a gas without adding heat to it? Explain.
