(a) Let the process start from initial pressure ${P_A},$ volume ${V_A}$ and temperature ${T_A}$.
(i) Isothermal expansion $(PV = {\rm{constant)}}$ at temperature ${T_A}$ to twice the initial volume ${V_A}$
Compression at constant pressure $\frac{{{P_A}}}{2}$ to original volume ${V_A}\,(i.e.\,V \propto T)$
(iii)Isochoric process (at volume ${V_A}$) to initial condition $(i.e.\,P \propto T)$
