Solution
The correct option is C Straight line AB cannot pass through O. a. Theoretically, B can pass through O because that would mean 0 pressure and 0 volume.
b. AB is isobaric and increases with temperature. BC is isochoric and increases with temperature.
c. BC is isochoric. So no work done.
d. This is a polytropic process and H isn't equal to W
