Multiple Choice Options

  • A (A) P → 1; Q → 3; R → 5; S → 4
  • B (B) P → 4; Q → 3; R → 5; S → 2
  • C (C) P → 4; Q → 1; R → 2; S → 2
  • D (D) P → 2; Q → 5; R → 3; S → 4

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

SOLUTION: (B) P → 4; Q → 3; R → 5; S → 2

  • JK (Isobaric):
  • W₁ = nR(3T₀ - T₀) = 2RT₀
  • ΔU = n(3R/2)(3T₀ - T₀) = 3RT₀
  • Q = ΔU + W = 5RT₀
  • KL (Isothermal):
  • W₂ = nR(3T₀) ln(P₀/2P₀) = -3RT₀ ln 2
  • ΔU = 0
  • Q = W = -3RT₀ ln 2
  • LM (Isobaric):
  • W₃ = nR(T₀ - 3T₀) = -2RT₀
  • ΔU = n(3R/2)(T₀ - 3T₀) = -3RT₀
  • Q = ΔU + W = -5RT₀
  • MJ (Isothermal):
  • W₄ = nRT₀ ln(2P₀/P₀) = RT₀ ln 2
  • ΔU = 0
  • Q = W = RT₀ ln 2

Matching List-I to List-II:

  • (P) Work done in the complete cyclic process (W_net):
  • W_net = W₁ + W₂ + W₃ + W₄
  • W_net = 2RT₀ - 3RT₀ ln 2 - 2RT₀ + RT₀ ln 2
  • W_net = -2RT₀ ln 2
  • (P) → (4)
  • (Q) Change in the internal energy of the gas in the process JK (ΔU_JK):
  • ΔU_JK = 3RT₀
  • (Q) → (3)
  • (R) Heat given to the gas in the process KL (Q_KL):
  • Q_KL = -3RT₀ ln 2
  • (R) → (5)
  • (S) Change in the internal energy of the gas in the process MJ (ΔU_MJ):
  • ΔU_MJ = 0
  • (S) → (2)

Final Answer:

  • (B) P → 4; Q → 3; R → 5; S → 2
