One mole of an ideal gas at initial temperature $T$ undergoes a quasi-static process during which the volume $V$ is doubled. During the process,the internal energy $U$ obeys the equation $U = a V^3$,where $a$ is a constant. The work done during this process is

  • A
    $\frac{3 R T}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{5 R T}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{5 R T}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{7 R T}{3}$

In thermodynamic processes, which of the following statements is not true?

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?

Match the List-$I$ with List-$II$:
List-$I$ List-$II$
$A$. Pressure varies inversely with volume of an ideal gas. $I$. Adiabatic process

$C$. Heat is neither absorbed nor released by a system. $III$. Isothermal process
$D$. No work is done on or by a gas. $IV$. Isobaric process

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):
