    Isothermal for $A$ and $D$ while adiabatic for $B$ and $C$
  • B
    Adiabatic for $A$ and $C$ while isothermal for $B$ and $D$
  • C

$(d)$ $CO_{2}$ is heated to a temperature $70^{\circ} C$ and compressed isothermally. What changes in its properties do you expect to observe?

The internal energy of the air in a room of volume $V$ at temperature $T$, with outside pressure $P$ increasing linearly with time, varies as

The internal energy of an ideal diatomic gas corresponding to volume $V$ and pressure $P$ is $2.5 PV$. The gas expands from $1 \text{ litre}$ to $2 \text{ litre}$ at a constant pressure of $10^5 \text{ N/m}^2$. The heat supplied to the gas is: (in $\text{ J}$)

In Column-$I$ processes and in Column-$II$ the first law of thermodynamics are given. Match them appropriately:
Column-$I$ Column-$II$
$(a)$ Adiabatic $(i)$ $\Delta Q = \Delta U$
$(b)$ Isothermal $(ii)$ $\Delta Q = \Delta W$
$(iii)$ $\Delta U = -\Delta W$

$n$ moles of a perfect gas undergo a cyclic process $ABCA$ (see figure) consisting of the following processes:
$A \rightarrow B :$ Isothermal expansion at temperature $T$ so that the volume is doubled from $V_{1}$ to $V_{2}=2V_{1}$ and pressure changes from $P_{1}$ to $P_{2}$.
$B \rightarrow C :$ Isobaric compression at pressure $P_{2}$ to initial volume $V_{1}$.
$C \rightarrow A :$ Isochoric change leading to a change of pressure from $P_{2}$ to $P_{1}$.
Total work done in the complete cycle $ABCA$ is
