Reversible process is one in which path of the process is known. And when equation for a process is defined that means path is also defined. So answer is false they all are reversible process.

I also agree all the above process is reversible.

In the constant pressure process only pressure remains same in both the states and other parameters change. So obviously it is not a reversible process. Similar for all the cases.

Please I don't understand can you justify more please.

Marwa said:   10 years ago
Please justify your answer I don't understand.

Constant pressure, constant volume & polytropic process may be reversible & irreversible also.

In all the processes there is heat transfer to or from the system. Now if the heat transfer takes place across finite temperature difference then the process is externally irreversible.

Furthermore if there is frictional dissipation then the system is internally irreversible.

In short all the above-mentioned processes are irreversible in reality. But if the equation is defined as a process then it is considered reversible approximately.

When initial state is identical to final state it is called cycle. Above this process are hypothecal but reversible. So, answer is B.

I think the second option False is correct.

The constant pressure, constant volume and constant pvn processes are regarded as REVERSIBLE process. So, the answer is B.
