$A$ monoatomic gas at pressure $P$ and volume $V$ is suddenly compressed to one-eighth of its original volume. The final pressure at constant entropy will be $.....P$.

$Assertion:$ In adiabatic compression,the internal energy and temperature of the system decrease.
$Reason:$ Adiabatic compression is a slow process.

The pressure and density of a given mass of a diatomic gas $\left(\gamma = \frac{7}{5}\right)$ change adiabatically from $(P, d)$ to $(P^{\prime}, d^{\prime})$. If $\frac{d^{\prime}}{d} = 32$, then $\frac{P^{\prime}}{P}$ is $(\gamma = \text{ratio of specific heats})$.

Identify the characteristics of an adiabatic process in a monoatomic gas.
$(A)$ Internal energy is constant.
$(B)$ Work done in the process is equal to the change in internal energy (in magnitude).
$(C)$ The product of temperature and volume is a constant.
$(D)$ The product of pressure and volume is a constant.
$(E)$ The work done to change the temperature from $T_1$ to $T_2$ is proportional to $(T_2 - T_1)$.
