Note that $p V^{\gamma}=$ constant and that $\rho$ is inversely

proportional to $V.$

Adiabatic process

$\mathrm{pV}^{\gamma}=$ constant

$\mathrm{p}\left(\frac{\mathrm{M}}{\rho}\right)^{\gamma}=\mathrm{constant}$

$\mathrm{p} \cdot \mathrm{M}^{\gamma} \cdot \rho^{-\gamma}=$ constant $\quad\left(\mathrm{M}^{\gamma} \text { is constant }\right)$
