Select the incorrect statement about the specific heats of a gaseous system.
$0.02\, moles$ of an ideal diatomic gas with initial temperature $20^{\circ} C$ is compressed from $1500 \,cm ^{3}$ to $500 \,cm ^{3}$. The thermodynamic process is such that $p V^{2}=\beta$, where $\beta$ is a constant. Then, the value of $\beta$ is close to (the gas constant, $R=8.31 \,J / K / mol$ ).
