An ideal gas undergoes a cyclic thermodynamic process in different ways as shown in the corresponding $P-V$ diagrams in column $3$ of the table. Consider only the path from state $1$ to $2$. $W$ denotes the corresponding work done on the system. The equations and plots in the table have standard notations as used in thermodynamic processes. Here $\gamma$ is the ratio of heat capacities at constant pressure and constant volume. The number of moles in the gas is $n$.
Column $I$Column $II$Column $III$
$(I)$ $W_{1-2} = \frac{1}{\gamma-1}(P_2V_2 - P_1V_1)$$(i)$ Isothermal$(P)$ [Graph $P$]
$(II)$ $W_{1-2} = -P(V_2 - V_1)$(ii) Isochoric$(Q)$ [Graph $Q$]
$(III)$ $W_{1-2} = 0$(iii) Isobaric$(R)$ [Graph $R$]
$(IV)$ $W_{1-2} = -nRT \ln(\frac{V_2}{V_1})$(iv) Adiabatic$(S)$ [Graph $S$]

$(1)$ Which of the following options is the only correct representation of a process in which $\Delta U = \Delta Q - P \Delta V$?
$[A] (II) (iii) (P)$ $[B] (II) (iii) (R)$ $[C] (II) (iv) (S)$ $[D] (III) (iii) (P)$

$[A] (III) (ii) (S)$ $[B] (II) (iv) (R)$ $[C] (II) (iv) (P)$ $[D] (IV) (ii) (S)$
$(3)$ Which one of the following options correctly represents a thermodynamic process that is used as a correction in the determination of the speed of sound in an ideal gas?
$[A] (III) (iv) (R)$ $[B] (I) (ii) (Q)$ $[C] (I) (iv) (Q)$ $[D] (I) (iv) (R)$

For a monoatomic ideal gas following the cyclic process $ABCA$ shown in the $U$ vs $\rho$ plot,identify the incorrect option:

In a certain thermodynamical process,the pressure of a gas depends on its volume as $P = kV^{3}$. The work done when the temperature changes from $100^{\circ}C$ to $300^{\circ}C$ will be .......... $nR$,where $n$ denotes the number of moles of a gas.

$A$ soap bubble of radius $r$ contains a monoatomic ideal gas. The gas is heated in such a manner that the bubble remains in mechanical equilibrium. Assuming that the soap material of the bubble has no heat capacity,the molar heat capacity of the gas in the process will be (Neglect atmospheric pressure). (in $R$)

Starting with the same initial conditions,an ideal gas expands from volume $V_{i}$ to $V_{f}$ in three different ways. The work done by the gas is $W_{1}$ if the process is purely isothermal,$W_{2}$ if the process is purely adiabatic,and $W_{3}$ if the process is purely isobaric. Then,choose the correct option.

$A$ polyatomic gas at pressure $P$,having volume $V$ expands isothermally to a volume $3V$ and then adiabatically to a volume $24V$. The final pressure of the gas is (for a polyatomic gas,assume degrees of freedom $f = 6$,so $\gamma = 4/3$):
