A gas is expanded to double its volume by two different processes. One is isobaric and the other is
isothermal. Let W1 and W2 be the respective work done, then

13. A gas undergoes a change of state during which 100 J of heat is supplied to it and it does 20 J of work.
The system is brought back to its original state through a process during which 20 J of heat is
released by the gas. The work done by the gas in the second process is
