One mole of an ideal gas is taken through a cyclic process with alternating isothermal and adiabatic curves. In the $P-V$ diagram, $AB, CD, EF$ are isothermal curves at absolute temperatures $T_1, T_2,$ and $T_3$ respectively, and $BC, DE,$ and $FA$ are adiabatic curves. If $\frac{V_B}{V_A} = 2$ and $\frac{V_D}{V_C} = 2$, then for the cycle shown in the figure, four statements are made below. (Figure is not drawn to scale)
Statement $1$: Ratio of volumes $\frac{V_E}{V_F} = 4$
Statement $2$: Magnitude of work done in isothermal compression $EF$ is $2RT_3 \ln(2)$
Statement $3$: Ratio of heat supplied to the gas in process $AB$ to heat rejected by the gas in process $EF$ is $\frac{T_1}{T_3}$
Statement $4$: Net work done by the gas in the cycle $ABCDEFA$ is $(T_1 + T_2 - 2T_3) R \ln(2)$
Find the number of correct statements given for the cyclic process followed by the gas.

One mole of an ideal gas undergoes two different cyclic processes $I$ and $II$,as shown in the $P-V$ diagrams below. In cycle $I$,processes $a, b, c$ and $d$ are isobaric,isothermal,isobaric and isochoric,respectively. In cycle $II$,processes $a^{\prime}, b^{\prime}, c^{\prime}$ and $d^{\prime}$ are isothermal,isochoric,isobaric and isochoric,respectively. The total work done during cycle $I$ is $W_I$ and that during cycle $II$ is $W_{II}$. The ratio $W_I / W_{II}$ is . . . .

Carbon monoxide is carried around a closed cycle $abc$ in which $bc$ is an isothermal process as shown in the figure.
