Written solution
Step 1: Analyze Process (I).
Calculate the heat supplied during vaporization.
Calculate the work done during expansion.
Apply the First Law of Thermodynamics to find the change in internal energy .
Thus, (I) matches with (P).
Step 2: Analyze Process (II).
For a rigid diatomic gas, the molar heat capacity at constant volume is .
Since the process is isobaric, the volume is directly proportional to the temperature.
Calculate the change in temperature.
Calculate the change in internal energy.
Thus, (II) matches with (R).
Step 3: Analyze Process (III).
For a monatomic gas, the adiabatic exponent is .
Use the adiabatic relation to find the final pressure .
Calculate the change in internal energy.
Thus, (III) matches with (T).
Step 4: Analyze Process (IV).
For a diatomic gas with active vibrational modes, the degrees of freedom are .
The heat capacities are:
For an isobaric process, the heat supplied is and the change in internal energy is .
Thus, (IV) matches with (Q).
Step 5: Match the results.
Combining the matches from the previous steps:
Answer: The correct matching is (I) (P), (II) (R), (III) (T), (IV) (Q).
