1) Let gas is compressed suddenly, So no heat is supplied from outside (i.e. Q = 0) but the temperature of the gas in the gas increases due to compression, 

 C = Q/m∆T = 0

2) Let the gas is heated in a way that the temperature is constant (∆T = O) then,

C = Q/m∆T = Q/mXo = α

Hence, depending upon conditions of heating. The value of C will be different.
