Two moles of a gas are expanded to double their volume by two different processes. One is isobaric and the other is isothermal. If $W_1$ and $W_2$ are the works done,respectively,then:

  • A
    $W_2 = \frac{W_1}{\log_e 2}$
  • B
    $W_2 = W_1$
  • C
    $W_2 = W_1 \log_e 2^2$
  • D
    $W_2 = W_1 \log_e 2$

Three moles of an ideal gas $\left( {{C_P} = \frac{7}{2}R} \right)$ at pressure ${P_A}$ and temperature ${T_A}$ is isothermally expanded to twice its initial volume. It is then compressed at constant pressure to its original volume. Finally, the gas is compressed at constant volume to its original pressure ${P_A}.$ The correct $P-V$ and $P-T$ diagrams indicating the process are

An ideal gas undergoes four different processes from the same initial state as shown in the figure below. Those processes are adiabatic,isothermal,isobaric and isochoric. The curve which represents the adiabatic process among $1, 2, 3$ and $4$ is
