Comprehension-3
An ideal gas initially at pressure `p_(0)` undergoes a free expansion (expansion against vacuum under adiabatic conditions) until its volume is `3` times its initial volume. The gas is next adiabatically compressed back to its original volume. The pressure after compression is `3^(2//3)p_(0)`.
The pressure of the gas after the free expansion is:

A

`(p_(0))/(3)`

B

`p_(0)^(1//3)`

C

`p_(0)`

D

`3p_(0)`
