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 . . . . . . $K.$

When $1 \text{ mole}$ of an ideal gas $(\gamma = 1.4)$ is compressed adiabatically,its temperature increases from $27^{\circ}C$ to $35^{\circ}C$. The increase in the internal energy of the gas is ...... $J$? $(R = 8.3 \text{ J/mol K})$

During an adiabatic process, the pressure of a gas is proportional to the cube of its temperature. The value of $C_p / C_V$ for that gas is

$Assertion :$ Adiabatic expansion is always accompanied by fall in temperature.
$Reason :$ In adiabatic process, volume is inversely proportional to temperature.

$A$ gas at normal temperature is suddenly compressed to one-fourth of its original volume. If $\frac{C_{p}}{C_{v}}=\gamma=1.5$,then the increase in its temperature is (in $K$)
