Which of the following options is the only correct representation of a process in which ΔU=ΔQ−PΔV?
An ideal gas is undergoing a cyclic thermodynamic process in different ways as shown in the corresponding P−V diagrams in column 3 of the table. Consider only the path from state I to state 2. W denotes the corresponding work done on the system. The equation and plots in the table have standard notations as used in thermodynamic processes. Here γ is the ratio of heat capacities at constant pressure and constant volume. The number of moles in the gas is n.
(I) W1→2=1γ−1(P2V2−P1V1)
(i) Isothermal
(II) W1→2=−PV2+PV1
(ii) Isochoric
(III) W1→2=0
(iii) Isobaric
(IV) W1→2=−nRTln(V2V1)
(iv) Adiabatic
