11. An ideal gas is compressed to half its initial volume by means of several processes. Which of the process results in the maximum work done on the gas? (2015 Re)
Isothermal
Adiabatic
Isobaric
Isochoric

Solution:

Work done on the gas is maximum in the adiabatic process as the area under the $P-V$ curve is maximum.
