An ideal monoatomic gas is taken through the thermodynamic states $A \to B \to C \to D$ via the paths shown in the figure. If $U_A, U_B, U_C$ and $U_D$ represent the internal energy of the gas in states $A, B, C$ and $D$ respectively,then which of the following is not true?

  • A
    $U_A - U_D = 0$
  • B
    $U_B - U_C = 0$
  • C
    $U_C - U_D > 0$
  • D
    $U_B - U_A < 0$
