Question
One mole of a monatomic ideal gas is taken along two cyclic processes E → F → G → E and E → F → H → E as shown in the PV diagram. The processes involved are purely isochoric, isobaric, isothermal or adiabatic.

Match the paths in List I with the magnitudes of the work done in the List II and select the correct answer using the codes given blow the lists.

Solution
(P) Process GE is isobaric
So work done = P |ᐃV| = P0 |(VG - VE)|
= P0 |(32V0 - V0)|
= 31V0V0
(Q) Process GH is isobaric so
So work done = P0 |(32V0 - 8V0)|
= 24 P0V0
(R) Since process FH is adiabatic so 32 P0V05/3 = P0VH5/3
& work done W

(S) Process FG is isothermal
so work done = nRT ln

= 160 P0V0 ln2.
So work done = P |ᐃV| = P0 |(VG - VE)|
= P0 |(32V0 - V0)|
= 31V0V0
(Q) Process GH is isobaric so

= 24 P0V0
(R) Since process FH is adiabatic so 32 P0V05/3 = P0VH5/3

& work done W


(S) Process FG is isothermal
so work done = nRT ln


= 160 P0V0 ln2.
