A fixed amount of a gas undergoes a thermodynamic process as shown such that heat interaction along path $B \to C \to A$ is equal to the work done by the gas along path $A \to B \to C$. Then process $A \to B$ is :-
  • A
    can only be isothermal
  • B
    can only be adiabatic
  • C
    can be isothermal or adiabatic
  • D
    none of the above
