B. The gas does no work but absorbs so J of energy as heat.
C. The gas does no work but rejects 50 J of energy as heat.
D. The gas rejects 50 J of energy as heat and does 501 of work.
E. The gas absorbs 50 of energy as heat and does 50」ot work.

Answer 1

Answer:

E. The gas absorbs 50 of energy as heat and does 50」ot work

Explanation:

This is following the law of thermodynamics that energy is neither created nor destroyed
