One mole of an ideal gas goes from an initial state A to final state B via two processes. It first undergoes isothermal expansion from volume V to 3 V and then its volume is reduced from 3 V to V at constant pressure. The correct p-V diagram representing the two processes is
Correct answer
3
Step-by-step solution
According to question first gas goes from volume V to 3 V and after this volume is reduced from 3 V to V at constant pressure. In isothermal expansion p-V curve is rectangular hyperbola. Option (4) is correct
