An ideal gas having initial pressure $P$,volume $V$ and temperature $T$ is allowed to expand adiabatically until its volume becomes $4V$,while its temperature falls to $T/2$. If the work done by the gas during the expansion is $\alpha PV$,the value of $\alpha$ is

  • A
    $1.25$
  • B
    $1$
  • C
    $1.5$
  • D
    $2$
