At the inversion temperature of a gas, the value of \(\left(\frac{\partial (pV)}{\partial p}\right)_T\) is

1. (a) positive and equal to the magnitude of \(\left(\frac{\partial U}{\partial V}\right)_T\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial p}\right)_T\)
2. (b) negative only
3. (c) positive and is greater than the magnitude of \(\left(\frac{\partial U}{\partial V}\right)_T\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial p}\right)_T\)
4. (d) negative and is less than the magnitude of \(\left(\frac{\partial U}{\partial V}\right)_T\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial p}\right)_T\)
