11. Consider the two processes involving an ideal gas. The first process is an isothermal process (A->C) with the volume of the gas changing from V1 to V2 (V2>V1). The other process involves a straight path (A->B) where the gas expands isobarically and in quasi-equilibrium from V1 to V2, after which it cools in quasi- equilibrium at constant volume V2 until the volume drops to p2 (B->C). What are the work done for these two thermodynamic processes. A. W = nRT In(V2/V1) and W = B. W = p1(V2-V1) and W = nRT In(V2/V1) C. W = nRT In(V1/V2) and W = p1(V1-V2) D. W = p1(V1-V2) and W = nRT In(V1/V2) E. W = nRT In(V2/V1) and W = p2(V2-V1) %3D
