Two moles of an ideal gas whose adiabatic exponent equals γ undergo a process in which the gas volume relates to the temperature as V = aTα, where a and α are constants.

At what value of α will the heat capacity be negative?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

C < 0 requires 1/(γ-1) + α < 0, i.e. α < -1/(γ-1). Matches (c).
