A sample of an ideal gas has pressure `p_(0)`, volume `V_(0)` and tempreture `T_(0)`. It is isothermally expanded to twice its oringinal volume.it is then compressed at constant pressure to have the original volume `V_(0)`. Finally, the gas is heated at constant volume to get the original tempreture.(a) show the process in a V-T diagram (b) calculate the heat absorbed in the process.

Explanation

To solve the problem step by step, we will break it down into two parts: (a) drawing the V-T diagram and (b) calculating the heat absorbed in the process.

### Part (a): V-T Diagram

1. **Identify Initial Conditions**:
- The initial state of the gas is characterized by pressure \( p_0 \), volume \( V_0 \), and temperature \( T_0 \).
- This point is labeled as state 1 on the V-T diagram.
