Starting with the same initial conditions, an ideal gas expands from volume V1 to V2 in three different ways. The work done by the gas is W1 if the process is purely isothermal, W2, if the process is purely adiabatic and W3 if the process is purely isobaric. Then, choose the correct option

Question

Starting with the same initial conditions, an ideal gas expands from volume V₁ to V₂ in three different ways. The work done by the gas is W₁ if the process is purely isothermal, W₂, if the process is purely adiabatic and W₃ if the process is purely isobaric. Then, choose the correct option

W₁ < W₂ < W₃

W₂ < W₃ < W₁

W₃ < W₁ < W₂

W₂ < W₁ < W₃
