For an ideal gas with initial pressure and volume $p_{i}$ and $V_{i}$ respectively, a reversible isothermal expansion occurs until its volume becomes $V_{0}$. Then, it is compressed to its original volume $V_{i}$ by a reversible adiabatic process. If the final pressure is $p_{f}$, then which of the following statement(s) is/are true?

  • A
    $p_{f}=p_{i}$
  • B
    $p_{f} > p_{i}$
  • C
    $p_{f} < p_{i}$
  • D
    $\frac{p_{f}}{V_{0}}=\frac{p_{i}}{V_{i}}$
