$A$ gas is compressed isothermally to half its initial volume. The same gas is compressed separately through an adiabatic process until its volume is again reduced to half. Then

  • A
    Compressing the gas isothermally will require more work to be done.
  • B
    Compressing the gas through adiabatic process will require more work to be done.
  • C
    Compressing the gas isothermally or adiabatically will require the same amount of work.
  • D
    Which of the case (whether compression through isothermal or through adiabatic process) requires more work will depend upon the atomicity of the gas.

An ideal gas expands isothermally from volume $V_1$ to volume $V_2$. It is then compressed to the original volume $V_1$ adiabatically. If $p_1$ and $p_2$ represent the initial pressure and final pressure respectively,and $W$ represents the net work done by the gas during the entire process,then:
