Question

One method of converting heat transfer into doing work is for heat transfer into a gas to take place, which expands, doing work on a piston, as shown in the figure below.                                                                                                   (a) Is the heat transfer converted directly to work in an isobaric process, or does it go through another form first? Explain your answer. 
(b) What about in an isothermal process?                                                          (c) What about in an adiabatic process (where heat transfer occurred prior to the adiabatic process)?

The increase in internal energy leads to an increase in the amount of volume occupied by the gas and hence leading to the movement of piston and the work being done.
