An ideal monoatomic gas is taken through a process $dQ = 2dU$. The molar heat capacity for the process is:

An ideal gas is subjected to a cyclic process $A B C D$ as depicted in the $p-V$ diagram given below. Which of the following curves represents the equivalent cyclic process?

The three processes in a thermodynamic cycle shown in the figure are: Process $1 \rightarrow 2$ is isothermal; Process $2 \rightarrow 3$ is isochoric (volume remains constant); Process $3 \rightarrow 1$ is adiabatic. The total work done by the ideal gas in this cycle is $10 \, J$. The internal energy decreases by $20 \, J$ in the isochoric process. The work done by the gas in the adiabatic process is $-20 \, J$. The heat added to the system in the isothermal process is .............. $J$.
