To resolve the provided matching problem, an understanding of thermodynamic processes and their associated equations is required.
- Isobaric Process (A): This process maintains constant pressure. Work performed, denoted by \( \Delta W \), is linked to volume variations. The heat transfer equation for this process is:
- \( \Delta Q = \Delta U + P \Delta V \)
- Isochoric Process (B): In isochoric (or isovolumetric) processes, volume is held constant, resulting in zero work done (\( \Delta W = 0 \)). Any heat introduced is exclusively applied to altering internal energy:
- \( \Delta Q = \Delta U \)
- Adiabatic Process (C): An adiabatic process involves no heat exchange with the environment (\( \Delta Q = 0 \)). Changes in internal energy are exclusively a consequence of work performed:
- Isothermal Process (D): During an isothermal process, temperature remains constant. According to the first law of thermodynamics:
- \( \Delta Q = \Delta W \)
Therefore, the correct matching is (A)-(IV), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(I).
