Consider an ideal gas in a frictionless piston cylinder assembly. The weightless piston is initially loaded with a large number of small weights. How would you carry out a reversible isothermal expansion process? Assume that a large number of very small weights, and an arrangement for reversible heat transfer are available.
- A. without adding or removing weights on the piston, transfer heat to the system
- B. without adding or removing weights on the piston, transfer heat from the system
- C. adding weights on the piston, transfer heat to the system
- D. removing weights from the piston, transfer heat to the system
