One mole of an ideal gas $\left( \frac{C_p}{C_v} = \gamma \right)$ is heated according to the law $P = \alpha V$,where $P$ is the pressure of the gas,$V$ is the volume,and $\alpha$ is a constant. What is the molar heat capacity of the gas in this process?

$A$ given mass of a gas is compressed isothermally until its pressure is doubled. It is then allowed to expand adiabatically until its original volume is restored and its pressure is then found to be $0.75$ of its initial pressure. The ratio of the specific heats of the gas is approximately:
