Question:

Consider an ideal-gas fixed-mass system undergoing a quasi-equilibrium (reversible) process. Which of the following statements are true? Explain your answer in each case.

A. On a pressure–volume plot, a constant-temperature process is represented by a hyperbola.

B. On a pressure–volume plot, a constant-temperature process is represented by a straight line with a positive slope.

C. On a pressure–volume plot, the area under the line representing the process is the work done on or by the system.

D. On a temperature–volume plot, a constant-pressure process is represented by a hyperbola.

E. On a temperature–volume plot, a constant-pressure process is represented by a straight line with a positive slope.

F. The moving-boundary work associated with a constant-volume process is zero.
