    Match List-I with List-II.
    List-IList-II
    (A) Isobaric(I) ΔQ=ΔW\Delta Q = \Delta W
    (B) Isochoric(II) ΔQ=ΔU\Delta Q = \Delta U
    (C) Adiabatic(III) ΔQ=\Delta Q = zero
    (D) Isothermal(IV) ΔQ=ΔU+PΔV\Delta Q = \Delta U + P\Delta V
    ΔQ=\Delta Q = Heat supplied ΔW=\Delta W = Work done by the system ΔU=\Delta U = Change in internal energy P=P = Pressure of the system ΔV=\Delta V = Change in volume of the system. Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
