$(A)$ the process during the path $\mathrm{A} \rightarrow \mathrm{B}$ is isothermal
$(B)$ heat flows out of the gas during the path $\mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{C} \rightarrow \mathrm{D}$
$(C)$ work done during the path $\mathrm{A} \rightarrow \mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{C}$ is zero
$(D)$ positive work is done by the gas in the cycle $ABCDA$
