Solution:

  1. PLAN By Boyle’s law at constant temperature, $p \propto \frac{1}{V}$

By Charles’ law at constant pressure, $V \propto T$

Process taking place at

Constant temperature - isothermal

Constant pressure - isobaric

Constant volume - isochoric

Constant heat — adiabatic

$K \longrightarrow L$ At constant $p$, volume
increases
thus, heating
$L \longrightarrow M$ At constant $V$, pressure
decreases
thus, cooling
$M \longrightarrow N$ At constant $p$, volume
decreases
thus, cooling
$N \longrightarrow K$ At constant $V$, pressure
increases
thus, heating
