The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is true for a reversible process, we need to analyze each option provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definition of Reversible Process**: A reversible process is an idealized process that occurs in such a way that the system and surroundings can be returned to their original states without any net change. It requires the system to be in thermodynamic equilibrium at all stages. 2. **Analyze the First Statement**: - The first option states that a reversible process takes place in a single step. - **Evaluation**: This is **false**. A reversible process occurs through a series of infinitesimally small steps, allowing the system to remain in equilibrium throughout. 3. **Analyze the Second Statement**: - The second option claims that the driving force is much greater than the opposing force. - **Evaluation**: This is also **false**. In a reversible process, the opposing forces are equal to the driving forces, maintaining equilibrium. 4. **Analyze the Third Statement**: - The third option states that the work obtained is minimum. - **Evaluation**: This is **false** as well. In a reversible process, the work done is maximized, not minimized, because the system operates under ideal conditions. 5. **Conclusion**: Since all the provided statements are false, we conclude that none of the statements accurately describe a reversible process.
