An ideal gas with adiabatic exponent $(\gamma = 1.5)$ undergoes a process in which the work done by the gas is equal to the increase in the internal energy of the gas. The molar heat capacity of the gas for this process is:

  • A
    $C = 4R$
  • B
    $C = 0$
  • C
    $C = 2R$
  • D
    $C = R$

An ideal gas at pressure $P$ and volume $V$ is expanded to volume $2V$. Column $I$ represents the thermodynamic processes used during expansion. Column $II$ represents the work done during these processes in random order:
Column $I$Column $II$
$(p)$ isobaric$(x)$ $\frac{PV(1 - 2^{1 - \gamma})}{\gamma - 1}$
$(q)$ isothermal$(y)$ $PV$
$(r)$ adiabatic$(z)$ $PV \ln 2$

The correct matching of column $I$ and column $II$ is given by:
