Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B)  \(\frac{3}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \mathrm{P} \propto \mathrm{T}^3 \Rightarrow \mathrm{PT}^{-3}=\text { constant } \)

\( \mathrm{PV}^\gamma=\text { const } \)

\( \mathrm{P}\left(\frac{\mathrm{nRT}}{\mathrm{P}}\right)^\gamma=\text { const } \)

\( \mathrm{P}^{1-\gamma} \mathrm{T}^\gamma=\text { const }\)

\( \mathrm{PT}^{\frac{\gamma}{1-\gamma}}=\text { const } \)

\( \frac{\gamma}{1-\gamma}=-3 \)

\( \gamma=-3+3 \gamma \)

\( 3=2 \gamma \)

\( \gamma=\frac{3}{2}\)
