Answer the following by appropriately matching the lists based on the information given in the paragraph.
In a thermodynamics process on an ideal monatomic gas, the infinitesimal heat absorbed by the gas is given by

T Δ X,

where

T

is temperature of the system and

Δ X

is the infinitesimal change in a thermodynamic quantity

X

of the system. For a mole of monatomic ideal gas

X = \frac{3}{2} R l n (\frac{T}{T_{A}}) + R l n (\frac{V}{V_{A}}) .

Here,

R

is gas constant,

V

is volume of gas,

T_{A}

and

V_{A}

are constants.
The List-I below gives some quantities involved in a process and List-II gives some possible values of these quantities.

	Column - I		Column - II
(I)	Work done by the system in process $1 \to 2 \to 3$	(P)	$\frac{1}{3} R T_{0} l n 2$
(II)	Change in internal energy in process $1 \to 2 \to 3$	(Q)	$\frac{1}{3} R T_{0}$
(III)	Heat absorbed by the system in process $1 \to 2 \to 3$	(R)	$R T_{0}$
(IV)	Heat absorbed by the system in process $1 \to 2$	(S)	$\frac{4}{3} R T_{0}$
		(T)	$\frac{1}{3} R T_{0} (3 + l n 2)$
		(U)	$\frac{5}{6} R T_{0}$

If the process on one mole of monatomic ideal gas is as shown in the

P V

P_{0} V_{0} = \frac{1}{3} R T_{0},
