Detailed Solution

Temperature at state ‘B’ is maximum
$\begin{array}{l} n R T_{B} = P_{B} V_{B} \\ n R T_{A} = P_{A} V_{A} \\ T_{B} = 4 T_{A} = 4 T_{0} \end{array}$
Net work done by gas in cyclic process
$(1) \frac{R}{2} (T_{B} - T_{A}) - (1) R (T_{C} - T_{A})$
$\frac{R}{2} 3 T_{0} - R T_{0} = 0.5 R T_{0}$
Heat capacity for process AB = $\frac{3 R}{2} + \frac{R}{2} = 2 R$
