A fixed mass 'm' of a gas is subjected to transformation of states from K to L to M to N and back to K as shown in the figure
The pair of isochoric processes among the transformation of states is
The pair of isochoric processes among the transformation of states is

- (A)K to L and L to M
- (B)L to M and N to K✓ Correct
- (C)L to M and M to N
- (D)M to N and N to K
Answer: (B)
Solution
An isochoric process is one in which volume remains constant (vertical line on a P-V diagram).
From the diagram:
The pair of isochoric processes is L to M and N to K.
From the diagram:
- L → M: Vertical line (V constant) → Isochoric
- N → K: Vertical line (V constant) → Isochoric
The pair of isochoric processes is L to M and N to K.
