Q75 · Chemistry

Which of the following p-V curve represents maximum work done ?

The figure, described in words

Options are p-V graphs labelled Isothermal: (1) steep curve over a small volume range with area shaded to V axis, (2) closed elliptical cycle, (3) curve over a wide volume range enclosing large area under it, (4) vertical line (no volume change).

  1. 1[graph: p-V isothermal, steep curve over small volume change]
  2. 2[graph: p-V isothermal, closed elliptical cycle]
  3. 3[graph: p-V isothermal, curve over large volume change with large area under it]Official answer
  4. 4[graph: p-V isothermal, vertical line at constant V]
