A monoatomic gas of pressure p having volume V expands isothermally to a volume 2V and then adiabatically to a volume 16V. The final pressure of the gas is ____________.

`("ratio of specific heats" = 5/3)`


An ideal gas A and a real gas B have their volumes increased from V to 2V under isothermal conditions. The increase in internal energy ____________.


Assertion: Equal volumes of monatomic and polyatomic gases are adiabatically compressed separately to equal compression ratio `("P"_2/"P"_1)`. Then monatomic gas will have greater final volume.

Reason: Among ideal gases, molecules of a monatomic gas have the smallest number of degrees of freedom.
