$2$ moles of an ideal monoatomic gas is carried from a state $(p_{0}, V_{0})$ to state $(2 p_{0}, 2 V_{0})$ along a straight line path in a $p-V$ diagram. The amount of heat absorbed by the gas in the process is given by

An ideal gas goes through a reversible cycle $a \to b \to c \to d$ and has the $V - T$ diagram shown below. Processes $d \to a$ and $b \to c$ are adiabatic. The corresponding $P - V$ diagram for the process is (all figures are schematic and not drawn to scale):

Heat is supplied to a diatomic gas at constant pressure. The ratio of $\Delta Q : \Delta U : \Delta W$ is

$A$ gas is enclosed in a cylinder with a movable frictionless piston. Its initial thermodynamic state at pressure $P_i = 10^5 \text{ Pa}$ and volume $V_i = 10^{-3} \text{ m}^3$ changes to a final state at $P_f = (1/32) \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}$ and $V_f = 8 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m}^3$ in an adiabatic quasi-static process, such that $P^3 V^5 = \text{constant}$. Consider another thermodynamic process that brings the system from the same initial state to the same final state in two steps: an isobaric expansion at $P_i$, followed by an isochoric (isovolumetric) process at volume $V_f$. The amount of heat supplied to the system in the two-step process is approximately: (in $\text{ J}$)

An engine (consisting of one mole of an ideal gas in a cylinder with a piston) follows the cycle shown in the figure. Find the heat exchanged by the engine with the surroundings in each part of the cycle. Given $C_V = \frac{3}{2}R$.
$(a)$ $A$ to $B$: Constant volume
$(b)$ $B$ to $C$: Constant pressure
$(c)$ $C$ to $D$: Adiabatic expansion
$(d)$ $D$ to $A$: Constant pressure

Five moles of an ideal gas has pressure $p_0$, volume $V_0$, and temperature $T_0$. The gas is expanded to volume $3V_0$ along a path such that the pressure $p$ changes as a function of volume $V$ as $p = p_0(V/V_0)$. The pressure is then reduced to $p_0$ while maintaining constant volume. Finally, the gas undergoes an isobaric compression until the volume and temperature return to $V_0$ and $T_0$, respectively. The total work done by the gas during the entire process is:
