An ideal gas at pressure $P_0$ undergoes an isothermal expansion until its volume is $8.0$ times its initial volume. The gas is slowly and adiabatically compressed back to its original volume. If the adiabatic constant of the gas is $\gamma = 4/3$, then the ratio of the average kinetic energy per molecule in this final state to that in the initial state is

  • A
    $1.44$
  • B
    $1.68$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $1.2$
