The figure shows the (P-V) diagram of an ideal gas undergoing a change of state from A to B. Four different paths I, II, III and IV, as shown in the figure, may lead to the same change of state.
               

a. The change in internal energy is the same in cases IV and III but not in cases I and II.
b. The change in internal energy is the same in all four cases.
c. Work done is maximum in case I.
d. Work done is minimum in case II.

Which of the following options contains only correct statements?

1. (b), (c), (d) 2. (a), (d)
3. (b), (c) 4. (a), (c), (d)

A given mass of gas expands from state A to state B by three paths, 1, 2 and 3, as shown in the figure. If W1, W2 and W3 respectively be the work done by the gas along the three paths, then:

1. W1 > W2 > W3 2. W1 < W2 < W3
3. W1 = W2 = W3 4. W1 < W2 = W3

A gas is compressed isothermally to half its initial volume. The same gas is compressed separately through an adiabatic process until its volume is again reduced to half. Then:

1. compressing the gas through an adiabatic process will require more work to be done.
2. compressing the gas isothermally or adiabatically will require the same amount of work to be done.
3. which of the case (whether compression through isothermal or through the adiabatic process) requires more work to be done will depend upon the atomicity of the gas.
4. compressing the gas isothermally will require more work to be done.

2. W1 < W2

3. W1 > W2

4. W1 = - W2
